Hello,
Here is a sample that generates an assertion failure with Visual C++
2005 using boost 1.33.1.
A NULL ptr is passed to std::string::append() by
boost::io::detail::mk_str().
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
#include
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
std::string str(""); // Empty string.
boost::format frmt( "%s" );
std::string res = ( frmt % str ).str();
return 0;
}
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
This is due to all the assert statements added in the new "secure" STL
that is shipped with VC2005.
But still, I don't think passing NULL to string::append() is correct
anyway...
Regards.
