Hi,
I have an application with a function "myfunction " that opens a file
and writes to it using fprintf.
This application runs on a unix (sun solaris 5.8) system.
I connect to this application from a VB GUi on a windows 2000 system.
The GUI invokes "myfunction ".
I get the following error:-
"debug assertion failed str!=NULL fprintf.c"
The check for NULL handler is in place.The code is similar to teh
following lines:-
FILE *fp;
fp=fopen("myfil e.txt","a");
if (fp==NULL)
exit(1);
fprintf(fp,"hel lo");
Since I check for the FILE handler for NULL value before executing
fprintf,why should I get the debug assertion failed error.
Thanks

So, you're just printing "hello" into that file? Or is it a bit more
complicated? Try doing exactly what you wrote here. Output "hello"
and see if there is a difference. Since I check for the FILE handler for NULL value before executing fprintf,why should I get the debug assertion failed error.
If I read the assertion correctly, it's not the file pointer that is
NULL, it's most likely the format string. Now, when you say "the code
is similar", we cannot help you. You need to post the _actual_ code.
But don't post all of it. Reduce it to the minimal program that does
exhibit the said behaviour.
Also, have you tried simply debugging your application without the VB
GUI thing calling it? What you need to do is isolate your problem. Is
it in the connectivity code? Is it in the UNIX program? Replace the
connectivity part with a simple piece of code that drives the rest of
the UNIX side and see if it makes any difference.
Good luck!

The problem is the string is NULL, not the file pointer. You say you're
invoking a function in another application? If you're passing the string
from one application to another, you need to read up how to do that safely
on your operating system. Passing a pointer (such as a char*) will usually
not work, because the memory from one app is often not accessible to another
app.

Hello people,
I've developed a windows forms application with VC++.NET.
The problem I have is the next: I run my application and all seems go
OK, but passed a certain time (it can be hours or some minutes), then
a dialog window opens with the title:Microsoft Visual C++ Debug
Library, and the next error: Debug Assertion Failed!
Program: name of my program

Hi everyone,
I'm writing Pure Data externals in C++ using Ms Visual C++ 7.0 and
Windows2000. I'm running motions sensor hardware so there's a bit of
real time data processing involved.
When I'm running my objects in Pure Data, I get an assertion failure
after a few seconds of running the motion sensors and I can't seem to
get rid of it. The error occurs in the expression _CrtCheckMemory().
Could anyone provide some possible solutions?

I have a managed c++ function below that makes a call to an unmanaged c++ dll
.. This function is called from a C# app, resulting in a
"Debug Assertion Failed dbgdel.cpp Line 52
Expression: _BLOCK_TYPE_IS_VALID(pHead->nBlockUse)" errir message.
This happens on function exit, looks like related to destruction of some vector.
Any ideas why ????
