From Ole Server Application do we have to call this (WM_QUERYENDSESSION)

What is the best way to track/troubleshoot the 'crash' errors like NULL pointers, memory crashes, etc? As the application is a huge code base, I am looking for one smart way to track the application crashes.

my boss does not think the same. I have mentioned him several times that it is more secure to use std::string or any other, but apparently it is best to use char * and home cooked functions for the system the application will run in.

piul wrote:

char * Func (char * sT)
{
	char sRet [MAX_STR_SIZE] = "";
	strcpy (sRet, sT);
	return sRet;
}

And when compiling I get a warning returning address of local variable or temporary

I think I know why it tells me this, but not completely sure...

1. allocate the output buffer out from the function
2. allocate the output buffer using new or malloc (but you should remember to deallocate it when it is no more needed)

int Func(char* sRet, const char* sT)
{
    return strcpy(sRet, sT);
}
