Ahhh... Thank you ! Here is the detailed C++ blueprint that's been hitherto alluded
to!
I assume that all these problems arise from the way in which the C++ compiler was
written.
I assume there's nothing conceptually different between a C++ class and an ordinary
struct, in that a local class instance could be
stored on the stack if the compiler was written that way.
The other things you wouldn't do normally because you have no Heap -> new and delete
would be like malloc and free...
But if you were quite insane I suppose you could allocate some feature memory and cast
it into a class instance...
Thanks for the additional tip -> I have ot be very careful not to use up my stack.
