Basemaker

Post by pheonixstorm »

The old basemaker compiles under windows. The problem now is getting it to run. I think I might have it configured wrong I don't know but it crashes before it even gets to main.

From my understanding of the file we may want to get the cre of this working again to either expand upon (using the upcoming base editor) or integrate part of bm into the new base editor. Ideas are welcome and I will continue to see if I can get this working or not.

just looking through the output you show, i think it's because the debug symbols are not loading...

The reason for this is because you are running the release version not the debug version, typically the release version does not contain debug symbols.

Also i notice the output shows it as exiting due to an unhandled exception... weather or not this is due to some optimisation during the release build or not i do not know

Even w/o symbols and debug information it should still be able to run throught the debugger.. it just wont be as useful or pretty. I just wanted to find where it was crashing so I would have an idea of where to poke around in the code.

i found this article while searching for information on the error result.

https://forum.avira.com/wbb/index.php?p ... ID=1031807

i do not know if you are using avira antivirus but from what i seen in the google results and checking a few pages, it seems one of the updates for it started causing this error for a lot of developers trying to debug programs

That could be it then. I have avira under xp and avast under win 7, should use avast for both but thought I would give avira a try since it had good reviews in a few different mags. Thanks for finding that.
