-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Macro Assembler (MASM), version 1.0
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SYMPTOMS
========
In version 1.0 of the H2INC utility, provided with Microsoft Macro Assembler
(MASM) version 6.0, 6.0a, and 6.0b, the /G3 or /G4 option switch does not change
the size of an int from a WORD to a DWORD.
STATUS
======
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in H2INC version 1.0. This problem
was corrected in H2INC for MS-DOS version 1.1 which is included with MASM for
MS-DOS version 6.1.
MORE INFORMATION
================
Pages 436 and 440 of the "Microsoft Macro Assembler Programmer's Guide" for MASM
version 6.0 document the /G3 and /G4 switches for the H2INC utility. As note
above, H2INC version 1.0 does not implement these switches.
Sample Code
-----------
/* Command line options needed: /G3
*/
int my_var;
; Resulting .INC file
EXTERNDEF C my_var:SWORD /* Notice it is not :SDWORD */
