Internal Compiler Error using temporary object containing gcroot

[Vladimir Kouznetsov]

#using <mscorlib.dll >
#include <vcclr.h>
public __gc class A {};
struct B {
void f(A* e);
gcroot<A*> e;
};
int main() {
B().f(new A()); // note that B b; b.f(new A)); works fine
return 0;
}

Thank you for the clarification Ronald,

I was disappointed basically because nobody cared to answer to my first post
for 10 days and after David answered I was not sure if anything changed. Was
my subject line not catchy enough?

thanks,

In general we don't post in threads where an MVP already addressed the issue and in this case probably no one noticed that David said he didn't know
whether the example was valid code.

On no David, I'm grateful that you answered. I was disappointed that I did

not receive any "official" reaction. Now, knowing that it was properly
reported, I'm completely satisfied.
Thanks again!

I'm sorry that you seem disappointed that I replied. I replied because
no-one else had, and I was only being honest in admitting my lack of
knowledge in managed C++ usage.

FWIW, I had submitted your code as a bug report to MS.
