Downcasting of externed types causes error
It looks like the compiler can't downcast an externed type that is derived from another type. This is definitely a feature my project makes heavy use of.
Example program:
SuperStrict
Extern "c"
Type MyType
EndType
Type MyTypeExt Extends MyType
EndType
EndExtern
Function TestFunc(objext:MyTypeExt)
Local obj:MyType = objext
EndFunction
Output:
