Access Violation Starting BCB2010 IDE
Posted: Mon 21 Sep 2009 05:01
Hi,
I have installed the latest SDAC into my BCB2010 installation and I get an access violation on startup:
I have traced this in the debugger and I believe that the cause is my running BCB in Windows 7 not as an administrator. It is attempting to create a file $(BDS)\bin\datasetmanager.cfg that cannot be created in this context as the directory is not writeable. If I run the IDE once under admin rights, then that file is created and running the IDE again under user rights produces no AVs.
I am happy that I have worked out the cause, but I believe for future releases that you should not be writing files to a programs directory.
