[Bug Fix] Fixed issue where Val shortcutting (!565) would not compile under 32-bit systems
Summary
This merge request fixes an issue where the ValCode
variable was defined as TCGInt
and would cause a type mismatch error under i386-win32, and presumably other 32-bit operating systems. Because this corresponds to the Code
output parameter of Val
, changing it to Word
(as documentation implies: https://www.freepascal.org/docs-html/rtl/system/val.html) instead won't cause non-trivially different behaviour on different architectures as it is just a string index and valid numbers can't currently be longer than 20 characters or so (much shorter than even a Byte).
System
- Processor architecture: Anything that isn't 64-bit
What is the current bug behavior?
Compiler doesn't build properly on non-64-bit platforms.
What is the behavior after applying this patch?
Compiler builds on non-64-bit platforms without issue.
