C++ API 2.3 Causing Access Violation Errors

hcl-bot · April 11, 2003, 12:42pm

I have a server add-in program I wrote using the 2.1 C++ API which works great under R5. I recompiled it using the 2.3 BETA API and it runs great under R6 & R6.01… When I recompiled it using the 2.3 RELEASED API, my program is triggering NSD which reports ACCESS VIOLATION errors. Here’s the weird part. If I compile using the 2.3 RELEASE API with MSVC++ 6.0 using an Win32-Debug configuration in my IDE, the add-in runs just fine. If I compile using the Win32-Release configuration, the add-in crashes with the ACCESS VIOLATION error. If I use the 2.3 BETA API, I can compile with the Win32-Debug and the Win32-Release configurations and the add-in will run without error…

Has anyone else experienced this or can anyone offer any ideas of how to approach solving this problem?

Thanks,

Dave

Hi David,

I’m part of the C++ API development team,

what are your compiler/linker settings (they’re probably correct…but that’s a start.)?

also, does the sample addinjob compiled with the default options crash?

Steve,

Here’s the makefile for project. Will this help?

I’m checking if the addinjob works…

Just a note, though. If I add 5 strategically placed “cout << “### 1 ###” << endl;” statements in code, it will run correctly… Take them out and it crashes…

Something fundamental HAD to have changed between the BETA and RELEASE versions of the API…
