I am trying to compile cdex from scratch as I want to add some new features
to take better advantage of multiprocessor machines and to be able to run
multiple encoding jobs on each track ripped.

I can compile fine but the problem is that on running the resultant
executable I get:

EAP[CDex.exe]: Invalid Address specified to RtlFreeHeap

It never even gets into cdex code it's dieing in the C library startup code
somewhere.

These kind of errors usually happen when different bits of application are
linked against different versions of the runtime library however I tryed
converting everything to use the MultiThreaded DLL and MFC in Shared library
rather than the static ones it was using but this didn't help.

I am using the tip of the trunk of CVS downloaded from sourceforge and I am using Visual Studio 6 SP5 to compile.

I've tried contacting the author but his sourceforge email address doesn't work. I also can't post the the CDEX forums themselves as the source forge systems they are on are misconfigured and are sending validation mails from names which are CNAMEs rather than A records and my mail provider sticks to the letter of the SMTP spec and rejects them.

Anyone any ideas?

Sorry, no idea, but I posted it to the CDex forums in hopes someone there will know.

I just updated from the CVS. It compiled and runs OK here. Have you compiled this before? You are aware that you need all the various dlls in the root dir? CDRip.dll, LangDll.dll, libsndfile.dll, etc.

Can you upload your compiled CVS version of cdex? I would like to test it since a while ago that the last official version was released.

Don't forget this is a beta.
