Hello again WitchLord and fellow Angelscript fans. :) I wonder if I'm doing something wrong with the reference counting. Here's the deal: I have my own class that I've registered with RegisterObjectType. I've also registered reference counting behavior, but not assignment or anything else. In the constructor for the class I set the reference count to 1. Addref and Release look like this: int UIEntity::AddRef() { return ++refCount; } int UIEntity::Release() { if( --refCount == 0 ) { delete this; return 0; } return refCount; } When I create an instance of this class from the script, I do it from a global function, that basically looks like this. The function is registered to pass a handle. UIEntity* ScriptInterface::UICreateText(parameters...){ UIEntity* entity=new UIEntity(); return entity; } The script that uses this looks like following: UIEntity @healthMeter;//global variable void initialize(parameters...) { @healthMeter=@UICreateText(parameters...); } Now for the problem. The reference for the newly created UIEntity is released too many times, and the final time it is released obviously has an invalid pointer to it since it's been deleted already. The final call comes from ResetModule, which I've got in the end of my program. Now I haven't seen a guide to reference counting anywhere, does one exist? Should I for example add to the reference every time I pass a handle of the object to the script? Should I add addRef to UICreateText? I'd appreciate any help. Maybe if no reference counting manual exists, I or somebody could write it in the wiki.

Thanks Mandrav, following that lead led me to this thread: http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=312968

Interestingly enough, the post by WitchLord explains the reference counting much better than the Angelscript documentation. Time to update the documentation?

Thanks Andreas, that info was pretty much what I was looking for.
