I am trying to run the squares.cpp example in the openCV 2.2. The code compiles and builds without errors in Visual Studio 2008. However when I run the executable (i.e., during run time) I am getting a error stating

Unhandled exception at 0x004ac363 in OpenCVRectangle.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xcccccccc.

This occurs at the definition:
vector<vector<Point> > squares;
in the main function

Can somebody help, why this occurs?
I figured out that the value 0xcccccc usually is an uninitialized or bad variable, but do not understand why I get this exception at this line.

The full example code can be found at http://pastebin.com/MTaXVcQz

    Your code runs fine on Mac OS X with OpenCV 2.3.0, but OpenCV is known to present different behaviors in different Operating Systems.

    • First, check if your code has this problem in both Release and Debug versions.

    • Upgrade to OpenCV 2.3.1 on Windows and see if the problem goes away.
