#96057 - the overlaying
Responding to: ???'s previous message
Function pointers need not use any more memory - but careless use can mess up the overlaying, and corrupt data...
The overlaying seems to a) always be a problem if you use local data in the functions pointed to or b) be something you have to think more about than the actual code.

Had I been the chairman of the function pointer fan club, I would have investigated this more, but, since I am not, I have taken the advice from the many posts warning about problems with FPs.
