    MSVC 5/97 Internal Error c1001?????

    I am getting the following error when I try to rebuild in Release mode.
    ???????????????????????
    C:\Projects\MyApp.c(131) : fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR
    (compiler file 'E:\utc\src\\P2\main.c', line 379)
    Please choose the Technical Support command on the Visual C++
    Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more information
    ???????????????????????
    I don't have an E drive, though I have a mapped network drive. Not that it has a utc\src folder.
    The technical help can't find words starting with 'e' let alone the word 'error'.
    I have tried deleting all the files in the release folder and doing full rebuilds but no joy.

    It is one function call that the compiler does not like but only in release mode.


    Anyone seen anything like this??

    Ahhhhh!

    To many paramaters passed as values not as pointers. In particular RECT's.

    I did not need the pointer only the value. Sending in a pointer fixed the problem.

    odd, sending by value shouldn't cause an error... oh well, good ya fixed it.
