I'm trying to learn C++ currently, but I'm having issues with the code below. class Vector2 { public: double X; double Y; Vector2(double X, double Y) { this->X = X; this->Y = Y; }; SDL_Rect * getSdlOffset() { SDL_Rect * offset = new SDL_Rect(); offset->x = this->X; offset->y = this->Y; return offset; }; }; Visual studio throws throw the following error when calling getSdlOffset() An unhandled exception of type 'System.AccessViolationException' occurred in crossEchoTest.exe Additional information: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. I've got a C#/java background, and I'm lost... Any help would be much appreciated.
