Issues with GetBuffer methods in VS2005

[ahammad]

I'm having issues with some code in VS2005. The code was previously compiled in VS 6 and it works fine, but when I moved to VS2005, I started getting problem. I get a runtime error when I attempt to open a certain file after it has been modified, and the line that causes this error is this:

fread(m_SEI[i].E[j].L.GetBuffer(StringLen), StringLen, 1, InStream);

Disregard the weird names (I am required to modify them).

m_SEI[i].E[j].L is a CString
StringLen is type short
and GetBuffer() is the CSimpleStringT method


Like I said, it only happens after the file has been modified, which means that the first time I run the program everything works fine, then if I make a change, it crashes.

I'm thinking that there has been some change in the way GetBuffer works in VS 2005 but I really don't know. All this code worked fine when compiled with VS 6. Was there anything changed?

Thanks

You are using all of the TCHAR conversion macros???

CSimpleStringT is ATL. Lotta fixes in ATL. Are you using thee same ATL templates??

I know that VC 6.0 had many problems with templates. Lotta template fixes in Visual Sutdio.NET 2005 so I am not surprised that something that didn't crash in VC 6.0 does in VC.NET 2005. Probably, whatever it is, should have crashed from the beginning.

Too much missing detail for a judgemeent.
