I ran the debugger and looked more closely at the stack trace, but I still don't know what I can do about the error. Could it be a bug that affects my type of system or something? It still points to the free function (possible corrupted memory block) which appears to be called by the boost::throw_exception function called by boost::filesystem::detail::dir_itr_init() + 0x27a. <-- What is that? That may be more the source of the problem. This appears to be called by the directory_iterator constructor. Below is the stack trace from the time a button is clicked (when the problem arises). kernel32.dll!77e73887() kernel32.dll!77e73887() ntdll.dll!77f59037()

Many Thanks Again,

The stack trace indicates that the path object destructor ~path() is calling free(void * pBlock blah...) in free.c and that is when the break occurs due to the filesystem::error.
What does that mean? It seems like there is nothing I can do if it is being caused by the destructor and/or Windows heap functions, but maybe I am not reading the output correctly.
It sounds to me like there's some sort of memory corruption, possibly a block is being twice freed, or a non-block is being freed. Either way, I can't really tell what's going on w/o more information, such as a self-contained example demonstrating this problem. In the mean-time, using the stack trace, figure out which call in your code leads to the exception and comment it out. Then, see if the exception shows up elsewhere. -- Matthew Peltzer -- goochrules@gmail.com _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users --------------------------------- Do you Yahoo!?
