I think that I've isolated this bug. I'll make some additional tests during Monday, but I think that only ap.cpp have to be fixed. I'll e-mail you when patch will be ready. Hope it will be Monday or Tuesday.

I think that problem is solved now. Only ap.cpp/ap.h were changed. I've posted fixed files (see attachment), can you try compiling your project once more with -O3?

That was very strange bug in GCC - for some reason following code for accessing first 4 bytes of double precision number worked incorrectly

Code:

double val = something;
ae_int32_t first_4_bytes = ((ae_int32_t*)(&val))[0]; // works incorrectly under -O3 and old GCC

so I was forced to replace it by

Code:

union _u_type
{
double val;
ae_int32_t p[2];
} u;
u.val = something;
ae_int32_t first_4_bytes = u.p[0] ; // works correctly under -O3

Hi there,
Great toolbox!
I'm still having problem running "test_i". Could someone explain to me (or better post a piece of code) how do I define "AE_USE_ALLOC_COUNTER" so it will work?

Many thanks

You should define at at global level using corresponding compiler directive. Just define AE_USE_ALLOC_COUNTER, and that should be enough
