Has anyone had any strange and unexplainable experiences
using associative arrays in a little more complex ways:
like
FirstClass[SecondClass] name

I get code that doesn't behave the same in debug and release mode, it allways crashes with acces exception but in different places in these two modes.

Then another interesting thing: i have code with a foreach
in a foreach and in the inner foreach i do something with the
associative array and it causes acces violation but
if i add a simple printf("."); in the beginning of the inner foreach
everything works ok.

Maybe i have gone totally crazy (my head is going to explode from this) but i can't see what am i doing wrong!

The code is too complex to post it here but i will try to find a simpler strange-behaving scenario, i was just wondering if simillar things happened to anyone else?

I tried and i tried but i couldn't recreate in a new project the problems
i was having. I tried
int[class]
class[class]
struct[class]
and it all worked great. I gues i was doing something else wrong.

After this little playing with associative arrays i like them even more! If only they worked for structs :)

The more I use them, the more I like them too!

They will if you write a Typeinfo for the particular struct.

I remember that someone said something about this,
but how do i write a Typeinfo for a struct, what needs
to be done??
Why isn't the approach the same as with classes
(that you have to write opCmp, opEquals, toHash)
that seams a lot simpler.
