C2 Fatal Errors

The table below, which is still in development (for accuracy as well as for completeness), lists the fatal errors that the back-end C/C++ compiler (C2) is known to be capable of issuing in version 13.00.9466.

Text for each error message is reproduced from the corresponding resource string in the executable, with placeholders resolved as much as possible in the style of the product documentation.

Error numbers that the product documentation does not list among the C/C++ Build Errors are highlighted yellow. For some, the code that can raise the error may turn out at closer inspection to be unreachable.
