BUG: You receive a "fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR" error when you create an object that is a copy of a virtual function return value in Visual C++ 6.0 (226110)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Enterprise Edition 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Professional Edition 6.0
- Microsoft Visual C++, 32-bit Learning Edition 6.0
This article was previously published under Q226110 SYMPTOMS When creating an object that is a copy of a virtual
function return value (a temporary object) using the compiler-supplied copy
constructor, you may get the following error:
test.cpp(22) : fatal error C1001: INTERNAL COMPILER ERROR (compiler file
'msc1.cpp', line 1794) Please choose the Technical Support command on the
Visual C++ Help menu, or open the Technical Support help file for more
information
Please see the steps to reproduce in the More
Information section below. RESOLUTION There are four ways to get around the problem: - Explicitly Define a Copy Constructor. (See Workaround #1 in
sample code below).
- Remove the virtual keyword from the function which returns
the value. (See Workaround #2 in sample code below).
- Introduce a temporary variable to store the return value.
(See Workaround #3 in the sample code below).
- Remove compiler support for synchronous (C++) exception
handling. This is accomplished by removing /GX (the Visual Studio default) from
your compile options. (See Workaround #4 in sample code below).
Workaround #1 is the recommended workaround whenever possible.
NOTE: If you define a copy constructor, you should also define an
assignment operator (operator=). STATUSMicrosoft has confirmed that this is a bug in the Microsoft
products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
This problem was corrected in Microsoft Visual C++
.NET.
