Crash analysis
-
Hi, I have an application which uses a static library and a load time DLL for which the .lib is required to be added in the project settings. when the application, both .lib file in VC6 works fine when the application in VC8, static lib in VC8, dll's .lib file in VC6 works fine. when the application in VC8, static lib in VC8, dll's .lib file in VC8,the application crashes. Dr.watson is enabled and the Crash dialog shows module name as unknown, version no. 0.0.0.0. The dump.log file also doesn't specify which module the crash is happening. FAULT --> shows to a section which doesn't specify the module name. The dll is having a version number. but the crash doesn't show the dll. Can anybody throw some light where could be the problem. Thanks,

Why do people use Dr. Watson to debug their application :confused: ? You should use the debugger from Visual Studio to do such things, it this much more powerfull and it will give you much more information. If the crash doesn't occur in your own source code, use the call stack to trace it back to the root problem.
