Crash in or after COleObjectFactory::UpdateRegistryAll();

[gintonic42]

Hm. On my W2000 machine, the same source can be debugged fine. But on my notebook with XP pro it causes an ASSERTATION if I try to debug the code. Compiling it to Release makes my App work, but I cannot debug it.



I am thankfull for any kind of help, because I do not know, where to start searching.

Run your application in the debugger...if the crash occur, press the 'Retry' button and you will be brought back to the debugger.

It will point to the line which caused the assertion. Open the call stack combobox and scroll down until you find the first function that you have written. Click on the line and the corresponding line/file will be displayed in the editor. Then check the variables involved to see whether everything is initialized and set correctly etc.

If this happens only with the release version...you might want to take a look at the following two articles...
