DLLIMPORT of COMMON block causes internal compiler error

[davejk2]

The following code generates an internal compiler error:

program TestCommonImport
implicit none
!DEC$ ATTRIBUTES DLLIMPORT :: / abc /
common / abc / x, xa
real x, xa(10)
x = xa(1) ! This is OK
xa(1) = 1.0 ! Generates "internal compiler error"
end program TestCommonImport

The problem occurs when assigning a value to an array element that is a member of a common block imported from another DLL. The "buildlog.txt" is

------ Build started: Project: TestCommonImport, Configuration: Debug|Win32 ------

Deleting intermediate files and output files for project 'TestCommonImport', configuration 'Debug|Win32'.

Is this a known problem?

Thanks and Regards,

You didn't say what version you are using. It works for me in 8.0.050.
