I have code running fine on Windows but segfaults on Linux!? The segfault is in tinyxml.h at line 1688. This is the ToElement method of the TiXmlHandle class. The backtrace (g++ using -O0) is . . .
<<

The code snippet . . .
<<
TiXmlDocument l_tTiXmlDocument;
TiXmlElement* l_pOverlayElement;
l_tTiXmlDocument.Parse(a_pStr);
TiXmlHandle l_tDocumentHandle(&l_tTiXmlDocument);
//<overlay>
l_pOverlayElement = l_tDocumentHandle.FirstChild( "overlay" ).ToElement();

This works fine on WIndows using the same XML string. I tried playing with the optimization going from -O2 down to -O0. This had no effect. Could there be some other setting which needs to be tweaked on Linux?
Thanks,
Bob
