I've built the OpenEXR files under Windows using VS2012 from the source linked 
from the OpenEXR website.
Everything builds OK (after a few tweaks as mentioned on this group) and the 
HalfTest runs OK.

I was having issues with half/floats in my application, so I wrote a quick test 
command line app to check everything was OK.
Not unsurprisingly, it was not!

This was the code … 

float f1 = 0.0f;
float f2 = 4.0f;
half h1 = f1;
h1 += f2;
float fRes = h1;

assert(fRes = 4.0f);

When converting from the half to a float to get fRes I'm getting an exception 
reading from the _toFloat array.

I'm not quite sure how or why this happens - if I debug in the testArithmetic 
call in the HalfTest, it all seems OK … so why would my test program not load 
the DLL correctly, but the HalfTest does.

Pretty sure it's something dumb that I'm doing, but cannot think what it might 
be.

I'm using VS2012, Win8.1, running Debug x64 builds and the ilmbase-2.1.0 sour 
code (built in VS2012 too).

As a side note, when building the source I had to do the following:
1) Include config.windows to the Iex and IMath libraries
2) Manually copy the halfExport.h files over to the deploy directory.
3) Patch BaseExc to have a std::string member & change the IEX_EXPORT 
decorations around (as outlined in an earlier post)

So, any ideas, solutions, suggestions greatly appreciated to save my sanity :)

Best Regards,
   Simon
