Inheritance & Dynamic Casting Quickstart example crashes

[Medality]

Hi,

I followed the Inheritance & Dynamic Casting Quickstart example. The upcast is working correctly but the dynamic_cast crashes:
Mock<C> cMock;
When(Method(cMock, foo)).AlwaysReturn(0);
A& a = cMock.get(); // get instance and upcast to A&
B& b = dynamic_cast<B&>(a); // downcast to B& --> Crash!

I'm using Visual Studio 2015 Update 3 on Windows 10.

Thanks.

i also have the same issue regarding the downcasting. it throws access violation exception.

My deduced code is:

class Base
{
public:
virtual ~Base() {}
};

class Derived : public Base
{
public:
	virtual ~Derived() {}
};

TEST(Test, TestCase)
{
	fakeit::Mock<Derived> mockDerived;
	Base* base = &mockDerived.get();
	Derived* derived = dynamic_cast<Derived*>(base); // Crash here. Access violation - no RTTI data!
}

my environment is Visual Studio 2015 Update 1 running on Windows 8.1

@eranpeer Any details on this? Just stumbled upon the same. Need the downcast in a special case caused by fakeit not supporting multiple inheritance.
