This is slightly odd.
I just switched from Visual Studio 2010 to 2012 Express.
In 2012 I'm getting runtime errors whenever I assign an sf::Text both a font and a string. If I assign one without the other, it will work fine. I can assign character size, color, and position without any problem, but those two functions together are giving me a debug assertion failed error. It says Expression: invalid null pointer.
I'm declaring the texts in a class and assigning the font and string in the constructor. The same exact code in 2010 produces no errors, and I've double checked -- I'm using the same library files, they're the debug libraries for SFML 2.
I imagine that I'm doing something wrong to cause the problem, but I have no idea what that would be. Any help would be appreciated.
