hello folks,

I keep getting an access violation exception when I create a pixelshader.

Here's the code:
 

        HRESULT result;
	ID3D10Blob* errorMessage;
	ID3D10Blob* vertexShaderBuffer;
	ID3D10Blob* pixelShaderBuffer;
	D3D11_INPUT_ELEMENT_DESC polygonLayout[2];
	unsigned int numElements;
	D3D11_BUFFER_DESC matrixBufferDesc;

	// Initialize the pointers this function will use to null.
	errorMessage = 0;
	vertexShaderBuffer = 0;
	pixelShaderBuffer = 0;

	result = D3DX11CompileFromFile(vsFilename, NULL, NULL, "VSTex", "vs_5_0", D3D10_SHADER_ENABLE_STRICTNESS, 0, NULL, 
				       &vertexShaderBuffer, &errorMessage, NULL);  

	if(FAILED(result))
	{
		// If the shader failed to compile it should have writen something to the error message.
		if(errorMessage)
		{
			OutputShaderErrorMessage(errorMessage, hwnd, vsFilename);
		}
		// If there was nothing in the error message then it simply could not find the shader file itself.
		else
		{
			MessageBox(hwnd, vsFilename, L"Missing Shader File", MB_OK);
		}

		return false;
	}

	// Compile the pixel shader code.
	result = D3DX11CompileFromFile(psFilename, NULL, NULL, "PSTex", "ps_5_0", D3D10_SHADER_ENABLE_STRICTNESS, 0, NULL, 
				       &pixelShaderBuffer, &errorMessage, NULL);
	if(FAILED(result))
	{
		// If the shader failed to compile it should have writen something to the error message.
		if(errorMessage)
		{
			OutputShaderErrorMessage(errorMessage, hwnd, psFilename);
		}
		// If there was nothing in the error message then it simply could not find the file itself.
		else
		{
			MessageBox(hwnd, psFilename, L"Missing Shader File", MB_OK);
		}

		return false;
	}
	// Create the vertex shader from the buffer.
	result = device->CreateVertexShader(vertexShaderBuffer->GetBufferPointer(), vertexShaderBuffer->GetBufferSize(), NULL, &m_vertexShader); // No access violation here
	if(FAILED(result))
	{
		return false;
	}
	// Create the pixel shader from the buffer.
	result = device->CreatePixelShader(pixelShaderBuffer->GetBufferPointer(), pixelShaderBuffer->GetBufferSize(), NULL, &m_pixelShader);  // Here it comes
	if(FAILED(result))
	{
		return false;
	}

I also checked if pixelShaderBuffer is still a nullpointer but it isn't and the buffersize is a non zero value.
I hope someone can help me. I also wish you a great valentine's day.

I don't know if this'll help yet, but what does the pixel shader code look like?

I solved it. It was so dumb ^^
I forgot to set m_pixelShader to 0.
