Well, at least that one basically doesn't make any sense in C with the types involved. It's not mimicking the syntax for 99.8% identical behavior and .2% surprise :grin: > @b4n now that you are returning `nullptr` from `pixels()` but you did not put > a check for that on the return value of every use of pixels() all you have > done is shift the problem. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye: Not really: at least to the C guy I am, reading 0 bytes from `nullptr` or 0 bytes from a valid pointer doesn't seem much different. > Now we can explain it, I suspect that it would be best to pass it to Neil to > decide the best solution for fixing drawing indicators on zero sized code > points.

I wanted to understand the issue and then provide a patch that Fedora could use to stop these repeated crashes. Now it'll be time to hand it out to Neil and let it live :) > @b4n @codebrainz just think of C++ as Sea++ a language which no longer has a > connection to C, and that does its own thing, like Java or D, thats > effectively what it has become smile And they kept the C syntax weirdies like `&array[index]`, very clever on their part :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes: OK, enough trolling about C++ on my part for the moment :slightly_smiling_face: -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
