Re: [Boost-users] Directory_Iterator -> hangs app

(slaps forehead) SOLVED...
 
The directory_iterator was causing the hang because I attempted to create an object of type path with a parameter that is causing problems. My path object scanPath displays "" as the path when that is not what was intended.
 
Thus I will start a new thread that addresses that issue. That should be much easier to solve I hope. :-)
 
Thank you all for your help with this aggravating problem. I really appreciate it.
 
Thanks,
Ryan

I am still stuck with this issue of a directory_iterator causing a hang when it is declared. This is one of the most bizarre things I have ever encountered.
 
Some more clues have arisen since my last post:
 
- Upon hanging, I now get a message box:
Unhandled exception at 0x77e73887 in PICtool-w32.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: boost::filesystem::filesystem_error @ 0x0012f170.
I seem to be getting *somewhere* although the message seems very vague.
- Upon executing the app in the explorer (not MSVC), I get a Runtime Error: The app has requested runtime to terminate in an unusual way.
- I ran Spy++ and see to get quite a few WM_GETDLGCODE messages. I have read that this can signify a problem.
 
Has anybody else had a problem like this with the directory_iterator? Any help or suggestion is greatly appreciated as I have been stuck for quite a while. :-(
 
FYI: MSVC .NET 2003, running as Multi-Threaded Debug DLL using the multi-threaded version of the Boost::Filesystem library.
 
Thanks Again,
Ryan
