It should be possible to create a self standing example that will compile on
a Linux box. It might not have to be fully equivalent as long as it fails in
the same way and aids in debugging

I apologize, I made a copy\paste error when providing the sample, I have
corrected it below as they are in fact the same buffers in the code I'm
running.

Unfortunately I cannot provide a complete standalone sample as I am working
in the Android NDK.

  In the code sample, FT_NEW_MEMORY_Face() is passed a different buffer from
the one created by LoadFile().

*Subject:* [ft-devel] FT_New_Memory_Face crashes



I have loaded an "arial.ttf" file (taken from my /Windows/Fonts folder) into
memory, however passing this into FT_New_Memory_Face crashes (I have also
tried other ttf files, and this function still crashes). Any clues as to
what I might be doing wrong? Note that I am using Freetype with the Android
NDK, so it is difficult to debug, however I find that eventually, the crash
occurs within:

FT_New_Memory_Face -> FT_Open_Face -> FT_Stream_ReadLong -> crashes at:

if ( p )

{

       result = FT_NEXT_LONG( p ); //crashes here, in file ftstream.c,
method FT_Stream_ReadLong

}


And below is my code:

unsigned char **fontBuffer *= LoadFile("arial.ttf");

zip_uint64_t fSize = GetFileSize("arial.ttf"); // I checked this, and
it returns the correct size

FT_Library  library;

FT_Face     face;

int error = FT_Init_FreeType( &library ); // I checked this, this step succeeds

if( error != 0 )

    printf("FT_Init_FreeType failed");



error = FT_New_Memory_Face( library,

                            (FT_Byte*)*fontBuffer*,

                            fSize,

                            0,

                            &face );
