HP OpenVMS Systemsask the wizard |
The Question is: Hello Mr. Wizard, I am running VMS 7.3 and BASIC 1.5-00 I am trying to examine a passed variable in an array, from the called submodule within the debugger. I can see the array fine before the call to the module. When I STEP/INTO the module and try to examine the array, I am getting the following error. %DEBUG-E-INTERR, debugger error in RSTTYPES\DBG$GET_BITSIZE_FROM_TYPESPEC 10 or session corruption. I have been unable to locate any mention of this error in any of the VMS manuals, and searches of the support site, as well as the entire internet, have found nothing. Could you please tell me what this error is? And if there is anything I can do to correct it? Thank You In Advance David Boland Systems Programmer The Answer is : It would appear that there is either a bug in the debugger, or a corruption within the application run-time environment -- the OpenVMS Wizard is aware of a few similar errors reported with Fortran applications involving a known problem, but reports against BASIC applications are rare. As is usual for this, please ensure you have the mandatory ECO kits installed, and select VIOC operations via VCC_FLAGS system parameter or install the XFC kit, and install any kits relevent to debugger and linker operations. Please then contact the support center directly, as access to a reproducer will likely be required.
