Hi Larry,

I am very interested in what you have. I will contact you directly. I do have VC6, but will have to get the 2003 compiler from microsoft.

But still no luck. Same error:

"Invalid Address specified to RtlFreeHeap"

I will check out the light reading at the msdn weblink that

Yeah, like Jeff said.

I've run into similar strangeness. If you are linking zlib

and jpeg you

should also compile those with the same static or

multithreaded options

or you can run into problems.

Check to make sure your program and libtiff were compiled

I read comments in "makefile.vc" in the libtiff distribution which

said to execute

nmake /f makefile.vc all

and that worked to supply me with natively compiled libtiff.lib and

libtiff.dll.

Linking them into my program using Codewarrior IDE, I am

Violation and runtime error in ntdll.dll.

Invalid Address specified to RtlFreeHeap( 00140000, 0014A2F8 )

Since I am using two different linking environments,

MSVC, I am thinking that the problem lies there.

Anyway, thanks to Edward L. for the new direction.

I'll work with Cygwin gcc and make and let you know how it goes.

Gotta install Cygwin first though.

I really recommend setting up make. There's a win32 version

of make that you can compile as well although I'm not sure

how well it works. We're using the cygwin version of gnu make.
