Here is a small program which reproduces the problem. I compiled it with gcc -O2 -funroll-loops -o test test.c followed by aout2exe test. If I run outside of desqview (but with QEMM installed) I get Exception 117. Inside desqview the system hangs. ==============================test.c================================== /* The overflow will cause Desqview to hang. */ #include #include #include main() { double t=1.0; int i=1; while(i<=10) printf("%2d. %26.16lg\n",i++,t=sinh(t)); exit(0); } ====================================================================== Thanks in advance.
