Bug with string(x)

Fri, 20 Jun 1997 00:04:46 +0200



In the following program, the capacity is not handled correctly.
x contains the full alphabet (though it shouldn't), and y contains
garbage (at least on Linux, not on DJGPP).

var y,x:string(10);
begin
  y:='';
  x:='abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz';
  writeln(x);
  writeln(y)
end.
