On the macro below 'as' prints infinite number of the following error message test.S:3: Error: `' was already used as parameter (or another local) name
.altmacro .macro ABC .print "local " .endm ABC It's perhaps about that the interpreter thinks the "local" word in the string of .print is an altmacro directive and as such it has to be carried out. Note, there is a space after local. I've experienced this behavior with binutils 2.18, 2.19, 2.20 on 64-bit and 32-bit gentoo linux as well as on windows xp in cygwin environment (binutils 2.19 and 2.20) -- Summary: altmacro: wrong string interpretation Product: binutils Version: 2.20 Status: NEW Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: gas AssignedTo: unassigned at sources dot redhat dot com ReportedBy: theorizer at freemail dot hu CC: bug-binutils at gnu dot org GCC build triplet: x86_64-gentoo-linux, x86_32-gentoo-linux, cygwin GCC host triplet: x86_64-gentoo-linux, x86_32-gentoo-linux, cygwin GCC target triplet: x86_64-gentoo-linux, x86_32-gentoo-linux, cygwin http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=11507 ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ bug-binutils mailing list bug-binutils@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-binutils
