My application works on NT but not on 95

[Zimmermann]

My application works well on windows NT.
On the other side, when I run it on Windows 95, I've got a failure which looks like a wrong memory allocations (the dynamic vectors are scratched by something else if
you see what I want to say).

If you have an idea to correct this bug, thank to tell it to me.

On the first look it's a variable (memory) initialization kind of a problem.
NT zeroes allocated memory for security reasons (in some cases), while Win9x doesn't.
Also, maybe a difference in some API's behavior.

No other ideas without seeing a piece of code / knowing what you (want to) do in your prog.


BTW, I think it would be better to describe your problem in "Visual C++ Programming" section.

Sounds to me like it could also be the possibility that NT uses UNICODE strings natively, whereas UNICODE support in 95/98 is nearly nonexistant. If you need a program to run under both you must use ANSI strings not UNICODE.
