#4 syslogd crashes randomly

[venkat swaminathan]

Sir

i am very to this and trying to implement syslog in my windows porting application.

To match linux i thought of impmenting syslog-win32 in windows

On that implementation i suddenly see that syslogd.exe is crashed and it pointed some exception

So i little modified the code in main.c

 int main( int argc, char* argv[] )
 {
static int help_flag = 0;
static int version_flag = 0;
static int install_flag = 0;
static int remove_flag = 0;
static int service_flag = 0;
static int shutdown_flag = 0;
char *instance_name = NULL;
char *priority = NULL;
int getopt_failure = 0;
WSADATA wsd;
char name_buf[ MAX_COMPUTERNAME_LENGTH + 1 ];
DWORD size;

LoadLibrary("exchndl.dll"); //adding DRMINGW dll for handling JIT

// SetUnhandledExceptionFilter( exception_handler ); //Commented this exception handler
-----

}

Below is the exception trace from drmingw implementation

syslogd.exe caused an Access Violation at location 1001EC1E in module libglib-2.0-0.dll Reading from location 00000014.
