TGEA 1.7.1 FindMatch::isMatch bugfix

by asmaloney (Andy) · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 09/23/2008 (12:41 pm) · 2 replies 

case '*':
               e++;
               match = false;
               [b]while( ((s=dStrchr(s,*e)) !=NULL) && !match )[/b]
               {
                  match = isMatch( e, s, caseSensitive );
                  s++;
               }
               return( match );

should be:

case '*':
               e++;
               match = false;
               [b]while( !match && (*s != '[[62810f246ecd5]]') && ((s=dStrchr(s,*e)) != NULL) )[/b]
               {
                  match = isMatch( e, s, caseSensitive );
                  s++;
               }
               return( match );

otherwise you can run off the end of the string...

This fixes a crash on exit bug.

No problem Matt. I remember fixing this in builder, it just didn't make it to TGEA.
