TO CLICKTEAM: Problem with rdPtr and ...

Hello Clickteam (and may other who can help me)
The hole subject is:
TO CLICKTEAM: Problem with rdPtr and tagRDATA structure .

I have a problem, im using a lib called ID3Lib (who can read mp3 id3 data) , but there seems to be a problem if i add my variable "ID3_Tag myTag" to tagRDATA structure; it crashing when i try to use a function: rdPtr->myTag.Link("filename.mp3") , that gets called when i do a "action" function.
But the thing is that it works perfectly without having the variable defined in tagRDATA structure (works with having it in top of Main.cpp).

Many Thanks!!

If you want to access the object elsewhere, you could always try putting extern ID3_Tag myTag; in common.h, and then keep the ID3_Tag myTag; at the top of main.cpp.

That is because the object isn't created in tagRDATA structure. Only its memory is created. So you need to have a pointer to the object in the tagRDATA structure and create it when when the frame starts and destroy it at the end of the frame..

And what z33z said. rdPtr is not a C++ struct so the object's constructor/destructor will not be called.

Ah, okay... well anyway, setting up in common.h with extern seems to work good; i'll report later....

Thanks!
