Crash in ToLowercase()

Using the same machine does not guarantee ABI compatibility. You can have many toolsets installed in VS2022, so you need to make sure you use the same or compatible ones.

No, fair point, I think that was my frustration coming out! I double checked the toolsets and ensured those matched OK.

@lassoan

You also need to share C and C++ compiler, flags, standard, and extensions between all the projects that you want to use together. See for example how external projects are configured in 3D Slicer, passing a number of options to build dependencies:

I will double check the compiler flags etc. I did try and compare them yesterday but I have probably missed something and this is leading to the issue. Thanks for the example, I will check that out.

@lassoan

Also, it may worth rebuilding everything from scratch, because sometimes - especially when you change build options - some libraries in your projects might not be fully updated for some reason (e.g., due to incorrectly written CMake files). Rebuilding everything may make the problem go away and you might not be able to reproduce it ever.

I tried this multiple times, and built with the debug info to allow me to step through and all times the same issue existed. I’ll have a look at the project settings again and hopefully I have just missed something staring me in the face.

Thanks for your suggestions, appreciate you taking the time to reply. I put in a quick fix by updating the call to take char* so that I could check it was working otherwise, which it was thankfully.
