http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1190 Summary: Reference becoming null Product: D Version: 1.013 Platform: PC OS/Version: All Status: NEW Keywords: wrong-code Severity: blocker Priority: P2 Component: DMD AssignedTo: bugzilla digitalmars.com ReportedBy: arkangath gmail.com The following code is part of a LOD terrain engine I'm coding and the code fails on a split operation, where references to Nodes are updated (copied) to generate child nodes. The code has been ported from C++ (I can post it as well) and all lines has been checked and re-checked for errors on the implementation. The code has been striped of all unnecessary methods to improve readability and reduce dependencies. When compiled with "dmd -g -debug teste.d" the program fails to generate a viable mesh, crashing on an assert. This assert can be removed and the code would generate a mesh, but with null Nodes, if could not be rendered (Access Violation if attempted). The assert occurs in both Windows and Linux, the only platforms available for testing. The line in which the assert fails is 307, when the current node's right neighbor's base neighbor is set to current node's right child node. Before that line, both are asserted as NOT being null. I tried to analyze the disassembled code, but I couldn't find the source of the error. ------------------ teste.d ------------------------- ///Contains all declarations concerning the terrain engine import std.string; import std.stream; import std.math; alias std.string.toString strfy; alias std.stdio.writefln Log; private static const ubyte PatchSize=64; //must be power of 2 //const ubyte MAX_DEPTH=cast(ubyte)(2*sqrt(PatchSize)+1); private static const MaxDepth=4;//17 private struct CamInfo { uint x, y, z; } private CamInfo camInfo; /** The Terrain engine class. */ public final class Terrain { ///The TreeNode class is used to store information about the patch tree private final class TreeNode { private TreeNode lChild, rChild, bNeigh, lNeigh, rNeigh; public this() { reset(); } public void reset() { lChild=rChild=bNeigh=lNeigh=rNeigh=null; } } ///Patch Class.

This way, Walter will know where to begin looking for changes that might have caused the bug.

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1190 I'd try: 1) removing the delete statements -or- 2) disabling the gc and see if either of those affect the results. --

http://d.puremagic.com/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=1190 This seems to be a bad interaction between inout parameters and a tangly web of pointers. In your case, I don't think you need to pass the TreeNode by reference (inout) to split, because nowhere in that function is the parameter assigned to directly. So I think just removing "inout" on that function will fix your problem. (I got another error after removing it, but it got past the trouble spot). But this still may be a bug. You've got a graph like this basically: bNeigh-----> null<---rNeigh[root] [tree]bNeigh---> null <------rNeigh and you pass in root.bNeigh by reference, then you try to set tree.rNeigh.bNeigh, which is the same as tree. I'll attach a simplified test case. --
