I'd like to include that the bugfix for afkmud's "dispose" macro requires that you add:

#include <typeinfo>

to the top of any files using the dispose, imcdispose, or I3_dispose macros.

Well actually it would be simpler to include it in mud.h but yes, you are right.

Ya.. I included it into each file just cuz i'm stubborn.

You may get errors with polymorph.c ... I think this should work fine:

#undef DISPOSE
#define DISPOSE(point)                                                          \
do                                                                                      \
{                                                                                       \
   if((point))                                                                  \
   {                                                                                    \
        free((point));                                                          \
        (point) = NULL;                                                         \
   }                                                                                    \
} while(0)

than at the end of the file

#undef DISPOSE

What kind of errors? The whole point of the new macros is so they will flag errors when something is done wrong. That would imply to me that there are problems that need fixing in polymorph.c

Here's the error:

/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.5/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld: `typeinfo for char_morph*' referenced in section `.text' of o/polymorph.o: defined in discarded section `.gnu.linkonce.r._ZTIP10char_morph' of o/polymorph.o

It happens after the files are compiled, so I think it's part of the linking.... plus the fact the error has the word "link" in it :lol
