Thank you so much for explaining this! I knew most of what you said already and yet something about it made it click what my error was. I thought I was already doing as you suggested, but I actually was off by one byte (don't ask).

alloc more any bytes is a bug of the compiler

I have a same problem in VC++ 6.0.there are some code as follows:
struct T
{
int * pt;
…
};

struct M
{
vector m_vctT;
…
};

map m_mapM;

M * pM = new M;
m_mapM.insert(make_pair(1,pM);

T * pt = new T;
pt = …
pM->m_vctT.push_back(pt);

so,I write some code for free memory in a destructor function,as follows:
for(map::iterator iter = m_mapM.begin; iter != m_mapM_end();iter++)
{
if((*iter->second) != NULL)
{
delete (*iter->second);
}
}

but run at delete (*iter->second) with debug mode,it report DAMAGE: after Normal block (#XX) at 0�XXXXXXX

who can tell me how to fix this problem? Please mail to me : witton@163.com. Thanks very much!

Hey.
Thanks for the help.

It’s obvious programmin error, i know…
But sometimes you just need to be pulled back to the ground.

same error with the following reason:
added a pointer variable to a base class of my plugins and forgotten to rebuild them. the error arised after deleting a plugin instance, but only when I accessed the member, even if I only set it to 0 in the constructor.
