I pressed the Tech Support butten accidently while using VC++6 - a message box popped up warning of a buffer overrun detected in/by the C runtime library, and VC disappeared.

Pressing the button again (after restarting VC6) just causes VC6 to terminate, no message.

It may be because my list of include directories is long - the 'body' part of the mailto: URI is truncated part way through the list of directories (there's 2035 characters in the URI).


Anyway, here's the info. it's trying to put in the mail message:

mailto:[email protected]?subject= &body=VA_X.dll file version 10.0.1237.0

{ and another 9k of includes which I won't put in the message }

We can reproduce the crash.

case=102

We are curious. Did you create your long custom list manually, or with the Paste icon in the C/C++ Directories dialog? If the latter, we assume you put one long time in the clipboard before the paste. We have in mind to allow the clipboard to contain separate lines.

Sorry I've not replied before now...but, yes, I created the list of directories with dir /s and a text editor and then pasted into VA X. The main reason for such a large list was the Boost library include directories (482 of them). To make that sort of task easier, it';d be nice if you could specify a directory tree via the root only (and some switch to turn on recursive file scanning), rather than having to enter all the directories...

Problem is fixed in latest build, ie 1240+. As well, you can paste a multi-line clipboard into our custom directories. This should help your predicament. Generate an expanded list external of the IDE, tweak with Notepad and paste into our dialog.

Get latest build from:
