Responding to: ???'s previous message
Nope. This is the beginning of generic Windows BSOD.
Erik... Allowing buffer overruns IS a programmer's error.
If you use a string that is not null-terminated...
If your specifier wants more variables than required...
If you request a pointer but provide a variable...
If your variable types don't match the specifier...
these are all programmer's errors.
Printf() is a heavyweight tool, like a motor chainsaw, you can cut down a tree, but you can't sharpen a pencil. You can easily cut your hand off too, and then you should only blame yourself for that, not makers of the chainsaw.
