Public bug reported: in src/zorbatypes/binary.cpp a lot of vectors are accessed with [0], e.g.:
aBase64.theData.resize( copy_without_ws( aString, aLength, &aBase64.theData[0] ) ); if in this case aLength is of size 0 the assertion "vector subscript out of range" is hit on windows in debug build. This happens because size == pos in std::vector implementation on windows: reference operator[](size_type _Pos) { // subscript mutable sequence #if _ITERATOR_DEBUG_LEVEL == 2 if (size() <= _Pos) { // report error _DEBUG_ERROR("vector subscript out of range"); _SCL_SECURE_OUT_OF_RANGE; } Therefore, before accessing a vector with [0] one must check whether the size of the vector is > 0. Otherwise the mentioned assertion will trigger. ** Affects: zorba Importance: Undecided Assignee: Paul J.
