Attempt to emit 32-bit instruction in /64 mode

Hi all,

I'm porting a 32 bit app to 64 bit and on switching on debug, I get the following error message when building;

*** Attempt to emit 32-bit instruction in /64 mode

This is in a C++ file compiled with SCC. I understand that SCC is not really supported any more but I'd like to track down where the issue is coming from and see if I can work around it.

Paul previously helped port a very similar codebase previously and I do recall there were some of these errors in there. My memory is that they were resolved somehow as we now build that other codebase with debug.

I'm hoping I can dig and resolve these as well.

Thanks in advance

Ryan

We are willing to look at bugs for 64 bit SCC but at the moment we may not always aim to provide a fix.

I will send you a private message.

I can also reproduce the problem.

The problem is caused by using some headers. These three headers provide e.g. this error.

#include <fstream.h>      // <----  *** Attempt to emit 32-bit instruction in /64 mode
// #include <iomanip.h>   // <----  *** Attempt to emit 32-bit instruction in /64 mode 
// #include <iostream.h>  // <----  *** Attempt to emit 32-bit instruction in /64 mode 

void my_test() {
 return;
}


 4/0257   inline int ios::setf(int flags, int mask)
   0009   }
*** Attempt to emit 32-bit instruction in /64 mode

Yes thank you. This is a known issue. At the moment alternative functions, to those requiring these, headers must be employed.
