Build 1219 let the following slip by.
panel[panelNum].gridPtr[1].sideSlice.point[iii] = p3;
it should have been this
panel[panelNum].gridPtr[1]->sideSlice.point[iii] = p3;
here is the definition of gridPtr
CArray<Grid*, Grid*> gridPtr;
I'm using VC 6

| I wonder if this is related to thread #656? VA often seems to be confused about CMaps of pointer values, and forgets that they are pointers not real objects. Of course, it could be something completely different... |

Perhaps it is, but that was several builds ago and the problem still persists. |

The error is one in our parser and is unlikely to get fixed in the next few builds. Parser changes can wreak havoc for many people. We are saving the task for the days after VA X is in general release.
Thank you for your understanding and patience. |

Don't you think Beta test is the time to make sure the parser is working properly rather than messing with people after they are really using and depending on the product?
After all, if it messes up now we just report it and don't write death threats. |

Reality is if we fixed every problem, we would never get out of beta.
Our goal is to fix problems that prevent people from using the software. We aim for stability and usability. Once done, and we are close, we issue a general release.
Once general release is done, we continue with the beta program. We don't skip a beat. Parser changes go in the beta version which is accordingly labeled. People who prefer not to live on the bleeding edge remain with our always available, general release. |

(bump) I just don't want this to fall through the cracks. The good news is that this is the most annoying thing I have to complain about. |

case=201
both thread #656 and this case reproduced in VS .NET 2003 with VAX 1246
i reproduced this using the simpler example:
CArray<string *, string *> check;
check[1].length(); |

| Thanks, feline. In general, VAX still seems very confused with template classes. I suspect none of the VAX developers write template classes, or they would be annoyed enough to do something about it. |
