Q40247 Incorrect Initialization of huge Array over 64K
Microsoft C Compiler
5.10 | 5.10
MS-DOS | OS/2
Summary:
When initializing the elements of an array declared as huge, which is
larger than 64K bytes in size, the compiler does not initialize it
uniformly. The first element contains the specified initializer, but
the following elements are all nulls (ASCII zeros) until after the
64K-byte segment bound.
After the segment bound, the array once again contains the elements
specified for initialization.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Version 5.10. We are
researching this problem and will post new information as it becomes
available.
