Hi all I am trying to use Boost library on 64 bit windows and it is crashing whenever i call a boost function. I am using boost 1.36 with VS2008 and i have used the bellow line to compile boost's 64 bit version. bjam debug release threading=multi --toolset=msvc-9.0 architecture=x86 address-model=64 I am using BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK preprocessor to link to boost. It crashes after saying that heap may be corrupted. Also it works fine if compiled for 32 bit windows. Here is a sample code that replicates the issue: /********************************************/ #include "boost/filesystem.hpp" int wmain(int argc, wchar_t* argv[]) { wchar_t path[] = L"c:/temp/test"; if(boost::filesystem::exists(path) ) { printf("Path exists.\n"); } else { printf("Path does not exists.\n"); } return 0; } /********************************************/ Here is the call stack at the time of the crash.
