Dr. Watson "Access violoation" error
I have a VB 6 application that uses TCP control to receives request from use
r
and send strings to users. Users login and logout of the appl. often.
Everytime after running the appl. for about 2 hours, the appl. just
dies/terminates. I found out I got a Dr. Watson error (access violation)
like the following:

Application exception occurred:
App:  (pid=336)
When: 5/9/2005 @ 10:43:56.154
Exception number: c0000005 (access violation)

Re: Dr. Watson "Access violoation" error
I can only give some general recommendations:

1) Check if you have "leftover" objects. To do so, count the number of
active instances for each class/form/usercontrol type you have. This works
by declaring a public variable in a BAS module, incrementing this variable
in the Class_Initialize (or Form_Initialize, Usercontrol_Initialize)-Event
and decrementing it in the _Terminate-Event. If the numbers do not match the
number of instances you think you should have (e.g. you created 10
instances, then destroyed 8 of them, but the counter says you still have 10
instances), then there may be a fault in your object termination strategy
(circular references that are not resolved, for example). This MAY or MAY
NOT cause the behaviour you describe - but it's good to check it, anyway.
2) Log to a file. Write a logging entry whenever you pass an important line
of your code. That way, you have a chance to find out what happened just
before the crash. Maybe that can give you a clue.
