I've got a class called Regex wich is an subclass of the interface Automate. In
some function I have a parameter which takes an automate.

public void fromAutomate(in Automate from)
{
Regex ex = (Regex)from;
}

I am sure this is a Regex because running the interface methods work as
expected. However, casting the Automate to the regex causes an access violation.

Please help,
Johnny

Else i don't see what would be causing it.

public class Regex: public Automate {}

int main() {
Regex regex = new Regex();
NDFA ndfa = new NDFA();
ndfa.fromAutomate(regex);
return 0;
}

and all he prints is a 0
