Purifier bug?

[Joubarbe]

On this blog post, you can find this code:

Code: Select all

Procedure a()

a.l = 10

*CrazyPointer.Long = @a
*CrazyPointer+1
*CrazyPointer\l = 152  ; stack corruption

EndProcedure

a()

The error is only caught if you compile with the ASM backend. In C, the Purifier doesn't seem to do its job.

Yes, it's not possible to do the same in C, I will take a closer look. For now, the purifier is more useful using the ASM backend.
