program creash on Japanese IME 2000

Hi, Gary, I recompile my code under UICODE setting and it
seems that it still crashes under Janpanese Language
input. It is strange, it can run on that machine, but as
long as Japanese IME is up, it will creash my program
right away..

Any one know what else I am missing or something else
could cause the problem??

Thanks a lot. -- Haibo

Hi Haibo,

Did you have define the "_UNICODE" and "UNICODE" preprocessor for yourproject?

Hello Haibo,

Thanks for posting in the group.

I also saw the former post from you. Based on my understanding, now the
problem is: When the input locale is English in the system, your
application could start or run well. However, if you change input locale to
Japanese, the application crashes whenever running or starting. Please post
here if I have misunderstood the problem.

It is really hard to isolate the problem based on the description. I don't
know Japanese. But based on my experience, this problem is not happening in
a Chinese system. I think you need to do the following troubleshooting
steps to isolate the problem:

1) Does this problem happen on other machines? If it is machine specific,
we need to pay more attention to machine instead of program.

2) When the crash happens, please click "retry" button to debug the
application and check the call stack. It may gives some idea on where the
problem resides. Also, visual studio 6.0 tools spy++ could log messages to
the application window.

3) Is there any special part in the application? Did you try to comment out
code slice to isolate the problem?

Hope that helps.

BTW, the code was compiled under VC++ 6.0 sp5 on win2k.

Hello Haibo,

Thanks for the quick response.

We still can't find out the exact reason based on the Dr. Watson's log. I
observed that there are some MessageBoxA calles in the call stack. What is
it?

Also, could you please test on other machines to see if this problem
happens on them?

I don't think you need to specify resource in Japanse. For an example, if
we are running a purely English version of application on Win XP, when we
change input Locale to Chinese, surely the English application won't crash.
If we can't see Japanese characters correctly in the screen, we may think
of it as a Japanese resource problem.

For this question, I think we may need to analysis the application first to
find out where the problem may resides. A code debug may be the most direct
way to analyze it.

Thanks and please feel free to post here if you have any more concerns on
it.

Hi, Yanhong and Gary, Thanks for your help. I have found
the problem, basically it is the dll version problem. The
installation package mistakenly pack some system dlls and
put them into local folder and for some system, those
dlls are not compatible...

Thanks a lot for your help. -- Haibo

[Yan-Hong Huang[MSFT]]

Hi Haibo,

So the problme should only happen on one machine. :) I am glad to hear that
the problem is resolved. If there are any questions, please feel free to
post in the group. It is our pleasure to be of assistance.

Thanks for participating the community.
