I have this small piece of code

#include "utils.h"

const bool fail = true;

/*/ global funcdef var (setter) + imports /*/

const char* funcdef_import_assert_as =
"import void bar() from \"somewhere\";"
"void test1(){ @foo = test2; }"
"void test2(){ @foo = bar;   }"; // the problem

void set_funcdef_var(asIScriptFunction*) {}

bool funcdef_import_assert()
{
    COutStream cout;
    asIScriptEngine* engine = asCreateScriptEngine( ANGELSCRIPT_VERSION );
    engine->SetMessageCallback( asMETHOD(COutStream,Callback), &cout, asCALL_THISCALL );

    engine->RegisterFuncdef( "void MyVoid()" );
    engine->RegisterGlobalFunction( "void set_foo(MyVoid@)", asFUNCTION(set_funcdef_var), asCALL_CDECL );

    int r;
    asIScriptModule* module = engine->GetModule( "script", asGM_ALWAYS_CREATE );
    module->AddScriptSection( "script", funcdef_import_assert_as );

    if( module->Build() < 0 ) // assert (-DNDEBUG not present)
    {
	 PRINTF( "script1 Build fail\n" );
	 return( fail );
    }

    CBytecodeStream bytecode("");
    if( module->SaveByteCode( &bytecode ) < 0 )
    {
	 PRINTF( "bytecode save fail\n" );
   	 return( fail );
    }

    asIScriptModule* module_bytecode = engine->GetModule( "script_bytecode", asGM_ALWAYS_CREATE );
    if( module_bytecode->LoadByteCode( &bytecode ) < 0 ) // error (-DNDEBUG present)
    {
	PRINTF( "bytecode load fail\n" );
	 return( fail );
    }

    engine->Release();
    return( !fail );
}

Angelscript compiled with NDEBUG (my setup)

(0, 0) : Error   : LoadByteCode failed. The bytecode is invalid. Number of bytes read from stream: 187

Angelscript compiled without NDEBUG

testgnuc: ../../source/as_scriptfunction.cpp:468: virtual int asCScriptFunction::AddRef() const: Assertion `funcType != asFUNC_IMPORTED' failed.

-------------------------------------------------------


And related question:
Is such code the correct way of handling global funcdefs with configuration as above? I have a feeling that blindly calling Release() without AddRef() will lead me into trouble some sunny day (yet i need it or garbare collector will complain when releasing engine).

vector<asUINT> Script::Config::runFunctions;

/// called when changing script function used for loop(), draw(), etc.
void Script::Config::ChangeRunFunction( asUINT type, asIScriptFunction* func )
{
    asIScriptContext* ctx = asGetActiveContext();
    if( !ctx )
        return;

    asIScriptEngine* engine = ctx->GetEngine();
    if( !engine )
        return;

    asUINT oldFuncId = runFunctions[type];
    asIScriptFunction* oldFunc = engine->GetFunctionById( oldFuncId );
    if( oldFunc )
        oldFunc->Release();

    int funcId = 0;
    if( func )
        funcId = func->GetId();

    runFunctions[type] = funcId;
}

/// called before releasing engine
void Script::Config::Finish( asIScriptEngine* engine )
{
    for( auto funcId : runFunctions )
    {
        if( !funcId )
            continue;

        asIScriptFunction* func = engine->GetFunctionById( funcId );
        if( func )
            func->Release();
    }
}

Hmm, this is not something I had considered before (taking the address of imported functions).

It looks like this is currently broken in the code, but I should be able to have it fixed without too much trouble.

I'll look into it and let you know as soon as I have an update.

I've fixed the problems related to taking the address of imported functions in revision 1992.

Thanks for the code snippet that so easily reproduced the problems (there were multiples).

I see you edited in a question after my last answer. The answer to that is that yes, it is correct to release the handle that you received in the parameter.
