        Reply To comer352l Well, if you want us to investigate, you really need
        to provide a fully self-contained test case. Don't expect us to work
        around your omissions — you need to either:­–

    Sure, I'm working on it.

        * adapt your test case, to work with one of the system DLLs, or

    Any suggestions ? Windows is not my "native" environment...

Any of the system DLLs, which is not linked by default; I've used psapi.dll, in
the past: see https://osdn.net/projects/mingw/scm/git/mingw-org-wsl/blobs/
5.2-trunk/mingwrt/mingwex/dlfcn.c

    What's the maximum attachment size ?

I don't know; it doesn't appear to be mentioned in the documentation, so I've
submitted a technical query to ask.

Ticket details:

I'm investigating the following crash, which occurs when accessing a dll via
LoadLibrary(), getProcAddress(), reinterpret_cast:

Problem signature:

Problem Event Name: BEX
Application Name: test.exe
...
Fault Module Name: StackHash_0a9e
...
Exception Offset: 0028fe9c
Exception Code: c0000005
Exception Data: badc0de1
...
Additional Information 1: 0a9e
Additional Information 2: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789
Additional Information 3: 0a9e
Additional Information 4: 0a9e372d3b4ad19135b953a78882e789



The code only crashes if it is compiled with -O1 (-O2, ...).
Moving around pieces of the code seems to fix the issue.
I was finally able to create some reduced example code with working / non
working variants (attachment follows).

        Do please note that your c0000005 exception code is a SEGFAULT,
        ("access violation" in Microsoft parlance). This means that your
        program is attempting to access memory to which it does not have access
        rights. Likely causes are references to an uninitialized pointer, or to
        memory which has already been deallocated; usually these are the result
        of errors in the user program code, but unless you do provide a fully
        self-contained test case, I am not willing to investigate further.

    I know. But I'm pretty sure the code is correct.

Hmm. I'm not so sure. At a first quick glance, this looks odd:

 1.  extern "C" {
 2.          #include "windows.h"
 3.  }

  • Firstly, (although GCC will tolerate it), the # introducing the include
    directive really should not be anywhere other than in column one.
  • Secondly, why use iquote semantics for "windows.h"? Is this the system
    <windows.h>, or your own project-local header? (If the latter, then I would
    suggest that the name is extremely badly chosen, because it conflicts with
    the system header name).
  • Thirdly, you should not embed the #include directive within the extern "C"
    block scope; that scope should be correctly specified within the included
    header itself, (and, in this case if it is the system's <windows.h>which is
    being included, then this is certainly taken care of, because it is a C++
    compatible C header).
