"Debug Assertion" Runtime Error on VS2008?
- by Linda Cohen
I' writing a C++ MFC program on VS2008 and I'm getting this "Debug Assertion Error" when I first run the program sometimes. When I try to debug it, it takes me to this winhand.cpp file which is not part of the program I wrote so I'm not sure how to debug this.
It takes the error to this place in winhand.cpp
CObject* pTemp = LookupTemporary(h);
if (pTemp != NULL)
{
// temporary objects must have correct handle values
HANDLE* ph = (HANDLE*)((BYTE*)pTemp + m_nOffset); // after CObject
ASSERT(ph[0] == h || ph[0] == NULL);
if (m_nHandles == 2)
ASSERT(ph[1] == h);
}
So why does this error happen? Why does it only happen sometimes (50% of the time)? How would I debug this?
I'll provide some code if is needed.
THANKS!
