Problem Dynamically Allocating Memory (C++)

Hey All,

I'm having a very strange issue I'm hoping you can help with. I am using C++ on a custom board using an RM42 to process data from my design teams project (I am a student so feel free to correct any errors you find here). I have zipped our entire project up and attached it so you guys can view everything (there is a lot of custom code).

My program initializes a class object as a global variable on start up named 'ccbus' which is of type 'CCBus' (source/sys_main.cpp @ 182). My CCBus object has a member variable (modules/CCBUS/ccbus.h @ 39) which is an array of pointers to a base class. Inside my main function (source/sysmain.cpp @ 261) I call an init function to allocate the child class objects into the array (modules/CCBUS/ccbus.cpp @ 450).

void CCBUS::CCBus::initCardList()
{
	/*  ID = #						  ID     CCBUS::Cards::BaseCard *                   CCBUS::Cards::CARD_ID */
	/*  ID = 0 (NULL)      */ cardList[ 0  ] = NULL;
	/*  ID = 1 (ALL)       */ cardList[ 1  ] = NULL;
	/*  ID = 2 (MIN)       */ cardList[ 2  ] = new CCBUS::Cards::PowerCard(    2 );   //  CARD_TYPE_POWER
	/*  ID = 3             */ cardList[ 3  ] = NULL;                                  //  CARD_TYPE_DRIVER_ASSISTANCE
	/*  ID = 4             */ cardList[ 4  ] = NULL;                                  //  CARD_TYPE_PC
	/*  ID = 5             */ cardList[ 5  ] = new CCBUS::Cards::SafetyCard(   5 );   //  CARD_TYPE_SAFETY
	/*  ID = 6             */ cardList[ 6  ] = NULL;                                  //  CARD_TYPE_DUCHESS_CAR
	/*  ID = 7             */ cardList[ 7  ] = NULL;                                  //  CARD_TYPE_ARTEMIS_CAR
	/*  ID = 8 (MAX)       */ cardList[ 8  ] = new CCBUS::Cards::RinehartCard( 8 );   //  CARD_TYPE_RINEHART_MOTOR_CONTROLLER
	/*  ID = CARD_ID_COUNT */

	return;
}

My issue is that when compiled the memory allocation for ID = 8 is skipped entirely, it is not visible in the disassembly.

However, when I call

ccbus.cardList[8] = new CCBUS::Cards::RinehartCard( 8 );

in my main function everything is fine. I have similar code (modules/ is identical and main is the same) running in a different project for a RM46 board and the same thing happens.

Any ideas as to why this line will not compile and execute? @mods: If this is better suited to the Compiler section of the forum please move it!

Thanks,
Nathan
