           Summary: Access Violation during reference counting
           Product: D
           Version: 2.032
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: critical
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD
        AssignedTo: nobody puremagic.com
        ReportedBy: bartosz relisoft.com


RcName is a struct that does reference counting. When I store an instance of
RcName in an object, everything seems to go fine, except that I get an access
violation during the final destruction.

compile with -gc and run under windbg, the windows debugger.

Shows that it crashes because _cnt is null in the first line of release().

I simplified the example. It turns out that the destructor of a class object
Counter is called. I have no idea what mechanism may call the destructor other
than GC. A new file attached.

The cause of the crash is there is a dependency in the code on the order in
which the gc runs the destructors on collected objects. Dependency on this
order is not valid D code.

Generally, one cannot refer to other objects on the GC heap when inside a
destructor for a GC object.
