Error When Closing Window

[Sazabi02]

Can you help me please. I'm having trouble with the SFML 1.4.

After going to 1.4 every time I close the Window I an error message saying

Code: [Select]

The instruction at "0x6973c180" referenced memory at "0x014E0654". The memory could not be "read".

Click on OK to terminate the program.


I tried it with a sample from the tutorials too. The "graphics-view.cpp" tutorial and the same thing happened.

Here's the error in the output Window.

Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?

[Tank]

OS? Compiler? Minimal example?
Have you tried to debug your application, yet?

[Sazabi02]

Windows XP, MSVC++ 2008, and yes I did.

It stops somewhere in __crtExitFunction

[Tank]

Sorry, no idea from my side, since I'm not using MSVC/Windows.

[Sazabi02]

Thanks anyway. Uhmmm... can anyone else help me?

It was _crtExitProcess not __crtExitFunction btw, sorry.

[Tank]

Ah btw, have you tried to build in release mode?

[Sazabi02]

Yeah I did.

BTW, Here's where the problem shows up.

[Sazabi02]

Ok, I tried my program on someone else's pc and it didn't have the errors. The problem might be just with my pc I guess.

[Tank]

Yep, could be true. When the official SFML tutorials don't work perfectly, there's mostly a problem on the user-side. But it would still be helpful to know what it was when you solve it, so that others who may experience the same problems get the right direction.

[Sazabi02]

I still haven't solved it.

I did a google search on the dlls in the call stack and it says they're my nVidia drivers. This didn't happen with SFML 1.3 so I'm assuming that 1.4 probably has some problems with nVidia drivers. Anyone else have the same problem?

I tried updating my drivers too. Didn't work though. The only difference is that the memory address that conatined the error was moved to a different one.

[Laguna]

Well I do have the same problem. Did you solve it by now?

Win Xp 32 bit Sp 3 (also an Nvidia card)
with Visual Studio 2008 and SFML 1.4

The problem only appears, when i tried to use a sf::string. The problem occurs after i set the text of the string.
If the string is only created but with no text, there is no error.

So Far...

[Sazabi02]

Ohhh... Yeah. I tried it and you're right. The problem is associated with sf::String.  Though even if I don't put text the error comes up and it only disappears when there's no text in my program.

[Laguna]

It's interesting, that the problem occurs, even if the sf:string object has been deleted long ago before the termination of the program.

Any Guesses? Just using no strings will cause no error, but this is surely not the way intended.

So Far...

I think this error may occur if you use a string with the default sfml font. Try to use another font, say Arial.ttf.

Code: [Select]

 sf::Font font;
  font.LoadFromFile("Arial.ttf", 32));
  sf::String text;
  text.SetFont("Arial.ttf");
  text.SetText("My String");
In this case the font file Arial.ttf must be in the same folder with your executable file.

[Laguna]

Hi,

No this didn't fix it. The problem does not seem to be associated with sf::font oder the default font.

It makes no difference wether the text is set via sf::string.SetText() or via the constructor of sf::string.

So Far...
