When I call an unmanaged C++ code from my C# code, I seem to have some kind of a memory leak. The C++ reads data from a file using ifstream.read, and writes it to a Vector. This happens only after upgrading to Windows 7, doesn't happen on Vista, but if I use a version of the native dll that was compiled on Vista, it doesn't change anyth...
Every time I run the app it creates a vshosts folder in the bin\debug folder in the following format: [appname].vshost_[hh-mm-ss] for example: mCommAttempt.vshost_16-33-57` The folder is always empty and ofcourse the regular vshost exe file is in bin\debug as well.

That si...

What's even more interesting, my application launched from Release folder does not work correctly (it works OK when launched from Debug folder). It's bit hard to explain - ...
I've been moving files around from my debug folder in an attempt to open the executable for my program from a different location. This seemed to have screwed things up, and I'd like to know how to fix them. The exact error reads as follows: "Visual Studio could not copy a support file to this location:\Program.vshost.exe'.
