Hu Aleksander,

I cannot reproduce it in Linux.
OpenWatcom 1.9 and 2.0 builds for Linux, MS-Windows, DOS and OS2
are compiled fine and hbtest for Linux, MS-Windows and DOS does not
show any errors. I haven't tested OS2 1.9 and 2.0 builds because I do
not have OS2 here.
Can you recompile Harbour with your OpenWatcom MS-Windows
with
HB_USER_PRGFLAGS=-gc2
and send rt_hvma.c to me?

best regards,
Przemek

Some mixture of methods was applied. Though this Watcom detection is a bit of strange, because it can even override user specified HB_PLATFORM, but that was what Harbour 3.2 did for many year, so i won't change it in this tree.

@omm please retest

To whom may it concern, hbtest build with 2025-01-03 OW on win32 gives strange some strange results, i haven't seen before (not seen OW circa 2020):

Thank you.

The bug is in Win32 version of OpenWatcom (Linux version
works correctly so my cross builds were OK and I was not
able to reproduce the problem).
Inside conditions like:
    #[el]if <exp1> <op> <exp2?
64bit signed and unsigned integers in <exp1> and <exp2>
are stripped to 32 bit ones, i.e.
    #if LONGLONG_MAX < LONG_MAX
        #error "BUG"
    #endif
It should be reported to OpenWatcom authors.
Can someone do that?
Meanwhile I'll commit temporary workaround changing
our #if expressions to use == and != operators instead
of <[=] and >[=] and eliminating unsigned 32 and 64 bit
comparisons.

best regards,
Przemek

Hello!

After your fixes, hbtest looks fine! Also NT-to-linux cross x86 build now finishes and is confirmed to be working (apart from minor hbmk2 reports, when it unsuccessfully tries to build dyn contribs - I don't think it is supported).

In short: OW truncates in preprocessor at C89 mode now, but we include stdint.h and datatypes are there(?)

Hi Aleksander,
Thank you for your time.
In Linux OE uses 64bit integers in #pragma directives ans
I haven't used any compiler switches to force cXX standard.
In the past I was making OW builds on different Linux
versions for Linux, Win, DOS and OS2 (AFAIR with 1.7, 1.8, 1.9)
and they worked without this problem. Now 2.0 also works.
But it's interesting if DOS and/or Win 1.9 builds has the same
problem. I've just logged in to an old computer on which I made
some test long time ago with DOSEMU and I've found interesting
output from HBTEST:
    Version: Harbour 2.0.0beta3 (Rev. 13081)
    Compiler: Open Watcom C++ 12.70.8 (32-bit)
    OS: DOS 6.22
    Date, Time: 2009.12.01 04:28:23
and the problem had not existed. HBTEST reported:

! 742 MAIN_HVMA(542) RTSTR( 00000500000000000000 )
       Result: " 16 500000000000000"
     Expected: " 21       500000000000000"
! 743 MAIN_HVMA(543) RTSTR( 0500000000000000 )
       Result: " 16 500000000000000"
     Expected: " 17   500000000000000"
! 1087 MAIN_MATH(359) Str(1234567890 * 1234567890 )
       Result: " 1524157875019052100"
     Expected: " 1524157875019052000"

and this is expected. These are the same results as in all other
builds also current one. Just simply now we are hiding above
as expected results but you can still see them running hbtest
with -noalt parameter.
It means that current OW 2.0 behavior is not backward
compatible but it's regression.

DOS output froim hbtest.exe compiled 2 days ago with
OW 2.0 as cross build for DOS in this Linux box (without my
recent modifications) looks as follow:

So for sure Linux cross builds for DOS works correctly with 65 bit integers
in #pragma directives without -za99
