BUG? float var within TStaticVar obj
 

I have been playing around with TStaticVar objects and one thing i noticed was assigning a float to a variable and trying to echo the var makes the NPC server crash.

NPC Code:

---

 

  obj = new TStaticVar("obj");

  obj.name1 = "steve";

  obj.number = 123;

  obj.float1 = 1.23;

  echo( obj.float1 );

---

NPC Code:

---

 

  obj = new TStaticVar("obj");

  obj.name1 = "steve";

  obj.number = 123;

  obj.numarray = {1,2,3};

---

Also assigning arrays to the object makes the NPC server crash.

what if you just use

obj = new TStaticVar();

So with further investigation and suggestion from fp4 I have come to the following conclusion.

You maybe not have the same name for the object as the name in the "constructor".

I havent went through all test cases which i dont think i will explore. This is just a rule of thumb in my book now.

ex: obj = new TStaticVar("obj");

Begs the question, why would this have such a behavior?

I don't know the technical reason, but when you make a GUI object. I.e.

you can access the control globally via control_name, TStaticVar works similarly.

Also I think it would of worked fine if you used a temp. prefix instead of using a global variable.
