Hey Dli,

I think it was send to the wrong email address.

One thing that I know was/is a issue on release vs debug builds is that sometimes pointers
are initialised as 00 (null) and sometimes not. I don't know about current
state if c/c++ and how defaults are initialised, bit I know there are at least
differences betwen OCS/Windows and Linux. On some platforms pointers
are initialised as 0x0, and other platforms it's random (what ever happens tobe at that memory)

During checking if a object is 'alive' (if (object == null) check it might work fine on for example
Linux, but OSX might crash because pointers are at that random value.

As I program mostly java, I frequently use a static code annalyser to spot some issues,
I wonder if it makes sense to use that on LibreCAD to see if there are any common errors?

Just a thought...

Untill you find server, I'll make builds eventually.
And everybody, who use my builds, should understand risks (I have avast! worked).
You not protest for this, aren't you? :-)
