I am getting an occasional “C++ exception: std::bad_alloc at memory location” with the following code.
LPDIRECTSOUNDBUFFER8* ppDirectSoundBuffer;
ppDirectSoundBuffer = new LPDIRECTSOUNDBUFFER8[1];
This code is called on boot/init. I can run the app 10 times and this exception will get thrown about 1 time.
The randomness makes me think un-itialized variables. But as you can see, the code is pretty plain.
Any ideas?
Thank you
So I figured this out. I was writing past the bounds of an array a few lines above this new call. Silly mistake =/
