TemplateStack Bug?

FYI, this line crashes RR4 Build 950 on x64 Vista SP2 in the same op in the Main thread and Rev frame every time, whether scripted, in the MessageBox, or in a Try loop, or in any form (ie "get", "put", etc):
Code: Select all
the currentcard of the templateStack
"currentcard" is not listed in any documentation but comes up in the propertyNames list.
FWIW:
Unhandled Win32 exception [424].
Unhandled exception at 0x00437d78 in Revolution.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000.

OK - filed as bz #8968.
For now, doctor says "don't do that"...
It *does*, of course, bring up the question of *why* you're trying to access the currentCard of the templateStack... it doesn't seem like a very rewarding property to try to work with.

There is no "why", I just happened on it. I was brute force analyzing available properties for "template" object settings to create my own starter stack. Since it crashed Rev, I had to pin it down anyway.

Got it. I definitely approve of exploring.

Well, exploring can be hazardous. You heard the one about the little kitten growing up in a cabin in the woods?

Brute forcing FTW!
