Problems with ref parameters

[rikimaru0345]

I want to use FEC in my serializer.

However there are multiple cases where FEC seems to have problems with ref parameters.

How to reproduce:

• Clone Ceras
• Add conditional symbol FAST_EXP in the project options (will enable FEC in DynamicObjectFormatter and ReferenceFormatter)
• Start the "LiveTesting" project, if everything works it will run through with no exceptions or asserts getting triggered.

Specifically the delegates from FEC crash with null reference exceptions while trying to use (write, read) a ref variable. When compiling the expressions normally, everything works fine.

Hi, what version of FEC did you use?

[rikimaru0345]

I copied the FastExpressionCompiler.cs from the master branch today.
So this one: 360a9f7

Thanks. That means more work is needed.
@dzmitry-lahoda, whould you have time to look?

[dzmitry-lahoda]

i will look

Any updates on this? Or any ideas how I could manually fix my expressions (if possible) ?

[dadhi]

I did not run your tests yet.

But, if you will identify and distill some of the failed expressions it will speed up things.

Ok, I will try to make an example that is a short as possible

Alright, this is the smallest example I could come up with.
It does not assign to ref parameters:

I do not know if this is the only issue, but it definitely is a blocking bug for me (obviously need to get the updated values that the function wrote to the ref parameters)

Thank you.

I have reduced problem to one class with one field as one parameter. Same struct works fine. Will fix within current week.

Cool. GitHub seems has issues.
