C++ Compile problem when using Windows - CodeGear

Question

This is a follow-up question to this one i made earlier. Btw thanks Neil Butterworth for you help http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2461977/problem-compiling-c-in-codegear

---

A quick recap. Im currently developing a C++ program for university, I used Netbeans 6.8 on my personal computer (Mac) and all works perfect. When I try them on my windows partition or at the university PC's using CodeGear RAD Studio 2009 & 2010 i was getting a few compile errors which were solved by adding the following header file:

#include <string>

However now the program does compile but it doesn't run, just a blank console. And am getting the following in the CodeGear event's log:

I would really appreciate any help or ideas on how to solve this problem.

P.S: In the case anyone wonders why am I sticking with CodeGear is because is the IDE professors use to evaluate our assignments.

Answer 1

I am assuming that you have debugging enabled, and you can't even step into main() with the debugger (Pressing [F7] or [F8]), like the program is crashing before it even gets into main. This could be a problem if you have a global (or static) instance of an object, and the object's constructor code is crashing.

If you do have a global object I.e.

MyClass object;
int main()
{ .... };

Try dynamically allocating it in main().

MyClass *object = 0;
int main()
{ object = new MyClass;
....
};
