Summary:
SYMPTOMS
In the Microsoft C Compiler version 5.1 and the Microsoft QuickC
Compiler versions 1.0, 1.01, 2.0, and 2.01, the function _arc() may
generate the following error:
run-time error R6003
-integer divide by 0
CAUSE
The _arc() function takes the following parameters:
_arc( SHORT x1, SHORT y1, SHORT x2, SHORT y2,
SHORT x3, SHORT y3, SHORT x4, SHORT y4 );
The function does not work properly if the following statements
are not true:
|x1| + |x2| <= 32767
|y1| + |y2| <= 32767
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in C version 5.1 and in
QuickC versions 1.0, 1.01, 2.0, and 2.01 (buglist1.00, buglist1.01,
buglist2.00, buglist2.01). This problem was corrected in C version
6.0 and in QuickC version 2.5 (fixlist2.50).
