Hello,

thanks for your patch! I've checked it and merged into development source tree.

Cheers,

Hello,

I noticed that iop.cc has a few asserts that cause the side effect of activerefs refcounting to behave differently between release and debug versions, since mico defines assert as
#define assert(exp)
when NDEBUG is defined.

I have no guarantees that the refcounting is correct after this, it would almost have to be wrong in either debug or release version since their behaviour differed.

Attached is a patch that changes the asserts to first store the value in a var and then assert that. The patch is -p1 in mico directory (against 2.3.12, issue is there in latest too). It seems somebody has been trying to debug the refcounting mechanisms at some point, so maybe this will help some.

I also noted that this issue was reported on the mailing list in 2004, but not included in the codebase for some reason. Original report here:
