Hi Developers :

i would like to know one thing...
Can application crash due to file name ?

after crash it showed :

Reason code : USER
Reason number : 7

In my application, files name was : Cxxxxxx.h and Cxxxxxx.cpp

i just removed the very first letter C .. and everything was fine...

i was amazed and stunned...

so i would like  to know the concept behind it??

Cheers!!

Hi CodePupil,

Your application can crash if the file name is obscene. On some countries,xxx is not acceptible.
Just kidding man!  Grin
There's probably something you're doing wrong with your file name descriptor. Post your code and we'll have a look.

Actually, just rebuilding the application is sometimes the solution especially if:
- you have modified some defines / inline functions
- or working with unfrozen interface
- or ...

Codewarrior is not always very good at detecting when a file shall be recompiled or not.

Re: File name impact !!
If Eric's theory is correct - and I think this is highly probable - you can now safely rename your files back to the original names Cxxxxxx.h and Cxxxxxx.cpp, and the crash will not come back.

Still unsatisfied if this turns out to be so?  Smiley
