boost = 1.54
IDE = Visual Studio 2005 / 2012
OS = Windows 7

Hi,
I have a 32-bit application that I am upgrading from Visual Studio 2005 to 2012. If I place the following code at the beginning of the application:

{
    //test 1
    boost::filesystem::path blahPath;
}

{
    //test 2
    boost::filesystem::path blahPath = _T( "C:\\ProgramData\\blah" );
}

{
    //test 3
    boost::filesystem::path blahPath;
    std::wstring text = _T( "C:\\ProgramData\\blah" );
    blahPath = text;
}

then it works fine in Visual Studio 2005, however test 3 crashes in Visual Studio 2012 with:

The boost::filesystem::path destructor is being called and is causing a crash. I do not understand how the first two tests can pass yet there is a problem with the third test. Is there something that I am doing wrong here or does anyone have any advice please?
Thanks,
Patrick
