Subject: UDK2017 and TCL - Decimal numbers being treated as Octals
Date: Wed, 5 Sep 2018 13:35:37 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAKm_c6CpjNGYQzOwdNnwf4dhQs=Tu+YPwA+WAgC-8+nMj0hPFw@mail.gmail.com> (raw)
Hi all,
I have an EFI Shell tool which uses EDK 1.05 and TCL 8.3 sources. This tool
accepts user commands to display PCI-E adapter information and to upgrade
firmware on it. I recently ported it to UDK2017. I am using VS2012x86
toolchain to build the tool.
When I run the binary from EFI Shell, TCL reports errors such as these.
can't use invalid octal number as operand of "||"
syntax error in expression "(1<<0)"
syntax error in expression "(0x1<<0)"
TCL seems to be treating decimal zeroes as octal numbers. For testing, I
replaced the zeroes in the TCL expressions with 0x0 and I was able to get
rid of few of the syntax errors. This will not work for macros and
expression which are resolved to 0 during runtime.
Since this issue is not being seen with EDK 1.05 code with the same TCL
version, I am wondering if there is any flag I am missing out. Any clues on
such a flag or even suggestions on whether this needs to be debugged from
UEFI side or TCL side is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Shraavya
