I ran into some assertion failures to do with refs while working on an OpenPlanet plugin. (original issue: https://github.com/openplanet-nl/issues/issues/241)

I was trying a hacky way to pass arbitrary data via ref to a coroutine: cast<ref>({cast<ref>(layer), cast<ref>({pageName})}).

This produced the following assertion failures:

I got a compile error after that, and could continue on as normal.
The compile error was No conversion from '<unrecognized token>' to ‘ref’ available. (See the github issue linked above for a little more details/context.)

My next iteration was this, and worked:

ref@[] ud;
ud.InsertLast(layer);
ud.InsertLast(array<string> = {pageName});
CtrlButton("Copy ML", OnClickCopyML, ud);

Thanks for reporting this.

Looks like the problem is when trying to cast the anonymous array to the ref. The compiler should be giving an error, not an assert failure.

I'll have this fixed as soon as I can.

I've fixed this problem in revision 2820.
