I’m using following stupid code:

std::vector<wxString> m_redoSteps;
...
m_redoSteps.clear();

When I’m compiling with Visual Studio 6 or GCC m_redoSteps.clear() works fine, when I use visual Studio 2010 there is an assertion “vector iterators incompatible” (which leads to a crash in release build).

Any ideas what is wrong here?

Edit: Adding one more line of code:

std::vector<wxString> m_redoSteps;
...
if (!m_redoSteps.empty())
{
   // do something in case it is not empty - which isn't in my case
   ...
}
m_redoSteps.clear(); // first call leads to the assertion...
