I believe this is related to a windows only bug in the
FootprintListBox constructor. CVPCB will crash because of the use of
an unitialized pointer in the constructor.
the fix is to add the line
m_ActiveFootprintList = NULL;
to the constructor, line 74 cvpcb/listboxes.cpp
the error occurs in SetActiveFootprintList ...
#ifdef __WINDOWS__
/* Workaround for a curious bug in wxWidgets:
* if we switch from a long list of footprints to a short list
(a filtered footprint list),
* and if the selected item is near the end of the long list,
* the new list is not displayed from the top of the list box
*/
if ( m_ActiveFootprintList )
{
bool new_selection;
if( FullList ) new_selection = TRUE;
else new_selection = FALSE;
if( new_selection != old_selection )
SetSelection( 0, TRUE ); // the exception
occurs here
}

I was working on a project 2 days ago, a simple power supply
board.
Everything was going ok, until I decided I would add a
hierarchical
sheet to my schematic. Before I did that I had added several
components to the schematic one at a time and used cvpcb to add
them
to the board, with great success. I like to do incremental adds to
keep from cluttering up the board, so this is why I do it this
way...
Well anyway, I added the hierarchical sheet and put a LPC2368 on
it
from the nxp library I downloaded, and added 2 global net labels.
I
also added the same 2 global labels on the main sheet (Is that the
right way to do it?) I then went to re-annotate my schematic(s)
and
create the netlist. This all went ok as it normally had. Next I
ran
(or rather tried to run) cvpcb to assign the footprints to the new
parts. BAM it crashed right away.
Can you send me (or/and send to Dick H.) your files (zip your
project
and send the zipped file).
