Hello, Giovanni. Thank you very much for your detailed bug report that includes build logs and a patch. :) I reviewed the build logs and the patch. I took some time to understand what static_cast<type> does in the patch, because I think I haven't seen that before. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/28002/regular-cast-vs-static-cast-vs- dynamic-cast https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/language/static_cast At least initially the patch looks right to me. I'll include this patch in the next upload. Thanks. -- Chris -- Chris Knadle chris.kna...@coredump.us
