Default Application Log reports fault at address 0x00000000

I'm sittin here looking through these threads.. I haven't even tried EQEmu yet but I noticed something I felt I should comment on.

When any windows app crashes and reports a fault at address 0x00000000 that could very well mean that a structure in the app was used before it was initialized. I know this because I'm fooling around with VC++ 2005 Express edition with Windows Platform SDK and DirectX9 SDK and I used to get that error a lot before I realized I was using a structure I created but didn't initialize.

The fault came about when I had a pointer-to-function initialized to NULL in the constructor but I forgot to assign it a value in the init code.

I've never worked with any kind of SQL server so I'm not precisely sure if it uses pointers in this way, but if there is a structure related to the login process that isn't initialized with valid values it's possible that's what's creating this fault.

I continue reading ...
