I am trying to add improvements to the 4-year-old VC ++ 6.0 program. Debugging is done from the command line, but not in the debugger: it crashes with access violation inside printf (). If I skip printf, it crashes in malloc () (called from fopen ()), and I can't skip this.
This means that I cannot work in the debugger and must rely on old printf statements to find out what is happening. This obviously makes it much harder.
Any idea why printf () and malloc () did not execute when running under the VC ++ debugger? I'm not good at this low level stuff!
The following is a call stack after an access violation:

Here is our source for calling fopen () and crashing in malloc ()
FILE *open_new_log( const char *logfile )
{
FILE *fp;
int retry = 0;
while( ( fp = fopen( logfile, "w" ) ) == NULL && ++retry < 300 )
Sleep( 1000 );
return( fp );
}
