C++ Exception

Enrique

When compiling the following program the IDE gives a C++ Exception
·
// test variable locality
·
import stamp.core.*;
·
public class Locality{
·
· static LocalVariables here = new LocalVariables(20);
·
· static void main(){
· }
}
·
class LocalVariables{
·
· void LocalVariables(int argument){
··· argument=argument;
· }
}

Please attach the classes exactly as they are.

Peter,



The source code you see is all there is to it.

I just discovered that the program has a syntax error, the constructor has a void keyword that shouldn't be there. When I remove the void it compiles without problems.

Peter Verkaik

I still like to have the class that generates the error as an attachement.
That way I am sure I have the exact file to reproduce the error so
I can fix the C++ exception.

Let me know if you need any aditional information

Peter Verkaik

Thanks for the file.

The error source is the 'void' instead of 'public' for class LocalVariables.
On my system, Jikes aborts and I must 3 times click 'don't send rapport'
before the C++ exception appears. This exception appears both
in release 2.0.3 IDE as in the beta IDE.

I will see if I can prohibit the C++ exception, preferable with a message.
There is nothing I can do about Jikes, so the abort windows will
keep popping up for such syntax errors. So perhaps it is best to simply
prohibit the C++ exception window to popup as well. There really is no
point in having a message stating Jikes aborted, as that is already clear.
