Ok, sorry I solved it just now ...
in applyInstanceData() ...
memcpy(&_pData, is.getRemainingBuffer(), _ui64DataSize);
is.advanceBuffer(_ui64DataSize);
should be
memcpy(_pData, is.getRemainingBuffer(), _ui64DataSize);
is.advanceBuffer(_ui64DataSize);
I was writing into the pointer address and not where it was pointing ...
