This is weird. I tried the code and both variables showed the value 1.
But then I noticed that the version was 1.92. I had downloaded 1.93, but never installed it.
So install 1.93 and try again. Now I see b=1 and a=0.
Checking the version shows 1.93 for IDE, runtime AND linker. That's a new one.
So as a test I ran the 1.92 update and tried one more time. Now b=1 and a=0, just as with 1.93. The runtime and IDE are 1.92, but the linker still shows 1.93.
