RE: [Boost-Users] Re: RegEx++ and Visual Studio .NET STL Problems

3 Jul 2002

      I'm checking my code for memory overwrites, but I'm fairly certain that's
not the cause (at least on my part).  I 'm thinking that it is a code
generation problem as John Maddock described.

I am calling regex++ from a COM inproc server dll.  It won't link if I try
to link to the static boost library because various STL calls are already
defined.  If I use the boost dll then I get the heap problem as already
described.

With MSVC++ version 6 I am able to link to the static boost library with no
problem.

  This problem is bad heap allocation.
  if anywhere in your program you create something using
  the new operand and afterward access some ilegal
  position (beyond the end of the allocation) - vc7
  compiler will detect that and will popup an assert.

  regex++ is working excellent with vc7 so you can
  assume it's something in the code you wrote that
  corrupts the heap.

  Good idea would be to refer to _CrtCheckMemory() API
  and to debug you allocations code.

  Cheers,

Nope, but make doubly sure that you are using a
shared memory
allocator, and if your project uses dll's that all
the dll's are
built with the same code generation options (ie the
dll runtime).
Hope this helps,
