Evil MSVC-specific dynamic dispatch trick Ok, I got bored, and sometimes when I get bored I try to see what kind of abominations I can slip past my compiler. Some of you might remember this post where I talk about some evil things you can do to implement your own RTTI mechanisms on top...

Revision 441 doesn't compile if AS_MAX_PORTABILITY is defined With revision 441 (the current head), if AS_MAX_PORTABILITY is defined as_arrayobject.cpp doesn't compile. It seems like #include "as_objecttype.h" is missing for the file.

AngelScript exceptions Right now the behavior of AngelScript exceptions is that when an exception is raised, the context first calls the exception callback and then cleans the stack. Would it be possible to delay cleaning the stack until Abort() is called?

Problem using implicit value cast to a user registered type With the current WIP revision (398) I can't seem to get asBEHAVE_IMPLICIT_VALUE_CAST to work when the type being cast to is not a built-in type. Sample code: #include "angelscript.h" #include <cassert> #include <cstdio> void Messa...

Current WIP (rev 383) doesn't compile with AS_MAX_PORTABILITY Pretty much what the thread title says. The current WIP (rev 383) doesn't compile when AS_MAX_PORTABILITY is defined. as_scriptstruct.cpp and as_arrayobject.cpp have some references to the deprecated asIScriptGeneric::GetReturnPointer() function.

Memory Block Assert when virtual func is declared. One thing I notice right away is that your ARRAY_ITEM class lacks a virtual destructor. In general, if you use a class as a base class it should have a virtual destructor.

Pointer to a pointer? The C++ standard explicitly states that function parameters that differ only in * vs [] are equivalent (section 13.1 paragraph 3). However, there's a long standing bug in the MSVC compiler that makes functions declared with * vs. [] have differe...

Dynamic memory allocation in a constructor Quote:Original post by sooner123 What about the very first new? Every time you call new you must call delete. Every time you call new [] you must call delete []. It doesn't matter if it's the first time or the second time or the one millionth...

Dynamic memory allocation in a constructor You're still leaking memory. For every new there must be a delete and for every new [] there must be a delete [].

G++ compiler being weird. Well first check to make sure that your version of g++ is up to date. If that doesn't help then make a copy of your project and start deleting stuff until you can identify exactly whats making things go screwy or get down to a minimal compilable code...
