Re: [Dev-C++] segmentation fault at runtime

[Black E. <bla...@ea...>]

It's tricky but I think I got it

In fact I am returning a pointer to m_pSrv which is a pointer itself, rathe=
r=20
than the adress of the class, right ?

What could have worked is if m_pSrv was the class and that I returned &m_pS=
rv,=20
the adress of the class.

But I've done like this :
KviIrcServer beConsole::server()
{
	qDebug("returning server");
	return *m_pSrv;
}

Thanks for help !
