PA_ReturnString crashing

[Matthias Schmidt-6]

Hello,

I have some problem with returning a CFStringRef, which just contain a
simple string: "dd.MM.yy"
I tried different approaches:
- PA_CFStringReturnAndRelease (params, cfStrResult );

and this here:
    theuStr = PA_CreateUniWithCFString (cfStrResult);
                        uChars = PA_GetUnistring (&theuStr);
                        PA_ReturnString   (params, uChars);

PA_CFStringReturnAndRelease, which was not written by me, but by Miyako
San, uses this code to create the PA_Unichar:
char* str = (char*)malloc( size );
CFStringGetCString( cfstr, str, size, kCFStringEncodingUnicode );
PA_ReturnString( params, (PA_Unichar*) str );

and  PA_CreateUniWithCFString uses this code:
PA_Unichar* uchar = (PA_Unichar*)malloc( size );
CFStringGetCString(cfstr, (char*)uchar, size, kCFStringEncodingUnicode)

as far as I understood it, both versions should work, but it is always
crashing in PA_ReturnString at this point:
void PA_SetUnistring( PA_Unistring* ustr, PA_Unichar* str )
{
        EngineBlock eb;

        eb.fUniString1 = *ustr;  <---- BANG with EXC_Bad_Access

        eb.fHandle = (PA_Handle) str;
        Call4D( EX_SET_UNISTRING, &eb );
        *ustr = eb.fUniString1;
}


I use the same code to set a line in a Text-Array and it works as expected.

So what do I miss here?


cheers,
Matthias

I have a plug-in which works perfectly fine running under Interpreted with
4D v11 but not when running under Compiled.  This is on a Mac running
10.5.6.

The plug-in was built as Universal Binary using XCode 2.5.

Any help would be appreciated.
