very strange problem

[victorh81]

Hello everybody,


I am writing a Symbian program with the Symbian SDK 1.0 for C++ and I encountered a very strange problem :

In my code, I have a for-loop like this :


index = 0;

for( counter = x; counter != y; counter++ )
{
array[index] ....
...
...


index++;
}

Now, y is always bigger than x, everything is defined but here comes the problem. If I write the same loop like this...

index = -1;

for( counter = x; counter != y; counter++ )
{
index++;

array[index] ....
...
...

}

...and let it run on the emulator once again it behaves differently, the result is different. There is quite some code in the loop and I don't know if Symbian has some kind of "limit for code in loops" or whatever...I just don't get why this happens! To say the truth, the loop I wrote above is in yet another loop in which something similar happens...if I move a statement from the very end to the beginning of the loop ( of course keeping the code equivalent ), it behaves differently.

Is this any kind of Symbian-related problem???

Can anybody help me???

Thanks in advance!!

Victor

One of the thing I see different is that after the loop, index will be different. The rest is certainly a logic error in your code...

Symbian is certainly not different from other OSes in term of loop size capabilities!
