I've been working on my own library in a different project. I decided to create a new project so I can test out what I've done so far in a fresh work space.
The issue I am encountering begins when I am attempting to open a file for reading from. It does open the file, however, when I attempt to read from it, or do any file related operations it crashes with 0xC0000005 exception, leading me on the stack to: EnterCriticalSection
I'm on Win7 using Visual Studio 2012
Message: Unhandled exception at 0x77E48E19 (ntdll.dll) in MainProj.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0x00000014.

This is what I am doing:
std::string Utilities::ParseAndCollectFile(std::string filePath)
{
char cCurrentPath[FILENAME_MAX];
_getcwd(cCurrentPath, sizeof(cCurrentPath));
std::string path = cCurrentPath;
path += '\\';
path += filePath;
Debug::Log(path);
std::ifstream file(path, std::ifstream::in);
std::stringstream readIn;
if (file)
{
readIn << file.rdbuf(); // CRASH
file.close();
}
else
Debug::Log("Failed To Open File: " + filePath);
return readIn.str();
}
I've check to make sure the file is in the right location. However, another strange issue is: if I do:
std::ifstream file("data/maps/exportedForestMap.txt", std::ifstream::in);
before calling the library function that collects the file string data, the loading of the file problem goes away. I'm not using any custom threads at this point, this problem is baffling, everything works as it should in my main project where I'm working on the library.
Thank you for any insight you can give me as to why this is happening and various ways to solve the problem.
