Problem Note 30934: C score code might create runtime errors
 |  |  |  |  |
C score code generated by SAS® Enterprise Miner™ might cause runtime errors on some systems if the code contains calls to any variable argument list functions.
*
For software releases that are not yet generally available, the Fixed
Release is the software release in which the problem is planned to be
fixed.
SAS Enterprise Miner C score code is generated with integer constants as parameters in some variable argument functions. Because the functions are defined as accepting double arguments, this can cause warnings at compile time on many systems. On some systems it will cause runtime errors or result in undefined behavior of the C code.
To work around the problem, manually modify the generated code C source code by adding a decimal point and a zero ".0" after the integer constant.
