There might be N reasons for the assertion, some are mentioned below:

1. You might be accessing an out of bound array element
2. Your application is showing a message box due to the ASSERT statement
3. Your code is trying to access an uninitialized memory/pointer

Why don't you debug your application and figure this out?

What are the contents of cmdInfo variable?
Is this initialized?

HI sir,
Yes it is initilized.

here it is..

BOOL CTestApp::::InitInstance()
{



	
	// Parse command line for standard shell commands, DDE, file open
	CCommandLineInfo cmdInfo;
	ParseCommandLine(cmdInfo);


	// Dispatch commands specified on the command line.  Will return FALSE if
	// app was launched with /RegServer, /Register, /Unregserver or /Unregister.
	if (!ProcessShellCommand(cmdInfo))
		return FALSE;


}

Thanks
Raj

maybe var is a keyword, try another identifier name.
It colors blue around here!

Maybe bool is not a valid C type... Roll eyes | :rolleyes:

it may be painted blue, it ain't a keyword yet.

I see a ~~red door~~ blue var and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black

var it's a C# keyword, I suppose.

C hasn't the bool data type. You may do the following replacement

bool -> int

I've seen a lot of C++ code where it's written in all capitals BOOL,
but I can't tell you where it is defined. Smile | :)

In Windows, it is defined as follows:

typedef int BOOL;

And is defined in WinDef.h, but I imagine you'd normally include it via Windows.h.

I assume other platforms define it in a similar header.

"C" does not have "bool", "true" or "false".

"C++" does have them (as does "C#", another forum) as recognizable data types.

The Visual Studio IDE editor highlights "bool", "true", and "false" in blue because it does recognize them as language keywords and even does that in files with the ".C" file type, even though the compiler will complain (this is a bug in the IDE in my opinion).

Microsoft defined "BOOL", "TRUE", and "FALSE" in one of their ".H" files and most of the windows APIs, MFC APIs, etc all return things of those types. However, those types are nothing more than "int" or specific values of "int". Because of this, you will often see a mix of "bool" (lower case) and "BOOL" uppercase in "C++" programs. I try to keep the uses apart, only using "BOOL" when dealing with API returned values or API parameters.
