Internal Error: no means to generate code for expression

[pjc30943]

On a 1281e, the following code produces the error "Internal Error: no means to generate code for expression" :

Code: Select all

'-------------------------------------\\
Option TargetCPU zx1281e
Option ExtRamConfig On
Option PortPinEncoding Off
Option TaskStackMargin 12
Option RamSize 64*1024-Register.RamStart
'-------------------------------------//

'-------------------------------------\\
public const a as single = 4.0
public const b as integer = 100
'-------------------------------------//


Public Sub Main()

	debug.print csng(a) * csng(b)
	
End Sub

Changing "csng(a)" to "a" fixes the issue. Of course, I am accidentally casting a single to a single in the example above, and that is what leads to the error.

Thanks for reporting this anomaly. The cause of the problem has been found and rectified. The correction will be included in a future release.
