-- [ Picked text/plain from multipart/alternative ] Ben, I read somewhere that the debugger could do that, but it sounded a little far fetched because I've seen uninitialised variables in a debugging application. :(
Is there any possible way to trace which variables aren't being initialised. I have been going through my code and looking for any uninitialised variables but this is very tedious. I have tried with memory breakpoints on the first memory address given in the error but that doesn't seem to help much. Pavol, this is happening with debug or release builds, it only depends on whether or not the debugger is attached. Thanks for both your help so far. :) On Apr 10, 2005 4:38 AM, Pavol Marko <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > I have also experienced problems when doing weird stuff with memory > (writing outside of allocated areas, etc.) a long time ago.
