I'm encountering a crash with Boost.Locale as the process terminates
I initialise the global Boost.Locale in the contructor of a class with a single static instance (the ATL module to be exact) as I don't have access to the code of my main method (it comes from the Boost.Test runner). A static object seems to be the only logical place to put this code:

I've tried to reproduce the bug but I couldn't: at least with MSVC9 with Release and Debug builds and under Linux. (I do not have MSVC8 you are using).
Can you provide a simple sample of the code that reproduces the issue so I can debug it?
I'll try and whip something up tonight.
Also what setup are you using:
- Debug, Release or RelWithDebInfo builds
Debug
- How do you use Boost.Locale - static version or dynamic (dll)? if you use static version are you sure you link with correct ICU library -- (debug versions of ICU library end with "d" suffix)
I'm statically linking with my compiled Boost.Locale but I'm using the ICU DLLs from the ICU site - I'm not compiling my own. These don't have the d suffix as debug builds aren't redistributable. I believe they are also compiled with MSVC9 where I'm using MSVC8. Would this cause a problem. I expected that, if it did, it would fail completely not partially work like this.
- What version of Boost.Locale you use? Taken from SVN, boost_locale.zip or boost_locale-svn_r1112.zip?
svn_r1112.zip
- What is your system locale?
Testing with en_GB and nl.
- Does program crashes when dictionaries are not loaded? (i.e. comment out: gen.add_messages_domain("swish"); ) - What ICU version do you have?
4.2.1
Can you try please following: add global destructor that would reset the global locale to standard one:
~CModule() { std::locale::global(std::locale::classic()); }
This didn't make a difference. Thanks. Alex Lamaison
