[John Frankland <377881@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

behaviour with new KVList (derived from KVSeqCollection) seems normal:

KVList* list = new KVList
KVParticle* part = new KVParticle
part->SetName("George")

KVParticle::GetName still returns different char* every time,
which is a little strange and worrying:

root [8] part->GetName()
(const Char_t* 0x2e76bf8)"GEORGE"
root [9] part->GetName()
(const Char_t* 0x2e63c88)"GEORGE"
root [10] part->GetName()
(const Char_t* 0x2e70558)"GEORGE"

but retrieval of object using FindObjectWithMethod works:

root [12] list->Add(part)
root [13] list->FindObject("GEORGE")
(const class TObject*)0x2ed8a60
root [15] list->FindObjectWithMethod("GEORGE", "GetName")
(const class TObject*)0x2ed8a60

Title:
  Strange behaviour of KVList::FindObjectWithMethod

Status in KaliVeda data analysis framework:
  Won't Fix

Bug description:
  Bug submitted to KaliVedaBugs on 15/12/2008 by Eric Bonnet.

  A weird behaviour to be known :
  don't use KVList::FindObjectWithMethod() and derivated methods
  on KVParticle and derivated classes with the GetName method

  KVParticle::GetName() returns each time a const Char_t* with a
  different address which seems to make TMethodCall a little crazy

  if you don't understand what i'm talking about
  it is good for you :-)
