Hello Rene,
I fixed this problem somehow and included in 5.14.50.
The problem happens in following case
- the function has a reference type argument
- and the argument has default value
- specified argument type and the given default value are different
types so explicit conversion is needed
Fixed cint is not very well tested yet. So please be
careful for the moment.
Thank you
