It is definitely related to STL being checked in a Debug Visual Studio
build... I get a bunch of ASSERT dialogs that pop up, so the test
times out and hangs there with the dialog up until I kill it manually.
If I ignore through all the dialogs that pop up (click ignore on each
of them, there are exactly 12 in total), then the test output is
normal, and it reports that it has PASSED.
I can wait for a fix. I was just asking to see if it was a known
thing, and find out if anybody was working on it, or if there was a
general recommendation about what the right fix for it is before I
attempt to fix it myself.
I'm curious, though, why is using "&this->m_Data[0]" acceptable if
m_Data is nullptr ...? Why doesn't valgrind pick this up as a problem?
