Until just now I had thought that the two operations below were identical.
A bug I just found in my code made me realize that they're not. Is there a C
wiz out there that could explain the difference? Thanks so much. The
Char*'s point into the dynamic heap, where they have been allocated with
MemPtrNew, and then they are written into the packed record later when the
record is closed.
typedef struct FlightDB {
UInt32 trip;
MemHandle packedH;
...
Char* from;
Char* to;
} FlightDB;
FlightDB* fRecPOne;
FlightDB* fRecPTwo;
Op #1: *fRecPOne = *fRecPTwo;
Op #2: MemMove(fRecPOne, fRecPTwo, sizeof(FlightDB));
