--- Comment #33 from Thomas W. Lynch <dimitrisdad at gmail dot com> 2012-05-05 00:48:57 UTC --- You say accessing type in operator new is illegal by the standard, but the compiler doesn't give an error though doing so is bloody obvious and I have the strick checking turned on- but that is ok, and I am somehow causing trouble by reporting this. You say that I got the correct answer when I inherited a method and used it in a child and it gave me the result a parent would have but a child wouldn't. You say that I did something wrong and so I deserve the results - then why do we have type checking? Now you parade me around as though I'm causing trouble for reporting this and acting like I need lessons in C++. That will teach me to make a report. I don't know Jon, I just don't get it.
