Gerard-
Excellent! Looking forward to seeing your fix (hoping you get your book back
soon ;-) )
I think Xcode/Swift gags on the last ptr advance to objectData. I recently
tried another variant using withUnsafeMutablePointer like this:
var ptr : UnsafeMutablePointer<ObjectData> =
withUnsafeMutablePointer(to: &mainPtr) {
$0.withMemoryRebound(to: ObjectData.self, capacity:
objectsToRender) {
$0.pointee = renderables[0].objectData
}
}
..but still crashes with no hints.
My bug report also mentions that the Xcode migration/conversion tool is
incomplete.
It handles the “simpler" UnsafeMutableRawPointer<X> to UnsafeMutablePonter<Y>
with bindMemory cases correctly (one still has to mind the capacity value
though)
In all fairness, migrating/converting automagically in these cases is always a
little bit tricky - the proposed Xcode fixes should always be reviewed by a
human...
