I am using the stdio file functions and i am getting a buffer overrun error. It is reading the data correctly, and there are no error getting returned from ferror. here's the read code:



Anyone have any ideas? i know the file was saved the same way it is being loaded.

Quote: "memset(pTileSet, 0, 256);"


pTileSet is not big enough?

Sorry should have mentioned. I already tested that. it's not it. it has something to do with the reading of the file. i //'ed(don't know the name for that) out the reading commands and it ran. Yes the file is large enough. If you would like the file i can upload it.

A buffer overrun is not caused by reading past the end of a file. My guess would be the 'fread(pTileSet, sizeof(char), bufferSize, file);' because it reads 'bufferSize' number of elements into an array. Try debugging, and see what the value of 'bufferSize' is at that point.

It had to do with the paste image function not liking value of 0. that coupled with some wrong values meant, well, it was sending 0 for the image number.

Got it fixed. thanks for your help though!
