<a name="index-Modula_002d2-checks"></a>

<blockquote>
<p><em>Warning:</em> in this release, <small>GDB</small> does not yet perform type or
range checking.
</p></blockquote>

<p><small>GDB</small> considers two Modula-2 variables type equivalent if:
</p>
<ul>
<li> They are of types that have been declared equivalent via a <code>TYPE
<var>t1</var> = <var>t2</var></code> statement

</li><li> They have been declared on the same line.  (Note:  This is true of the
<small>GNU</small> Modula-2 compiler, but it may not be true of other compilers.)
</li></ul>

<p>As long as type checking is enabled, any attempt to combine variables
whose types are not equivalent is an error.
</p>
<p>Range checking is done on all mathematical operations, assignment, array
index bounds, and all built-in functions and procedures.
</p>
