exception code 61 when initialize ws call

[Tao Yang <ty...@simdesk.com>]

Hi there,

I am trying moving my Axis C++ client from linux box to windows box but 
no luck yet -
it seems the client loads the dll OK as I saw following from the output 
window in MS Visual Studio:

'searchClient.exe': Loaded 
'C:\opt\utils\axis-c-1-5-win32\bin\AxisXMLParserXerces.dll', No symbols 
loaded.
'searchClient.exe': Loaded 
'C:\opt\utils\xerces-c2_2_0-win32\bin\xerces-c_2_2_0.dll', No symbols 
loaded.
'searchClient.exe': Loaded 'C:\WINDOWS\system32\msvcirt.dll', No symbols 
loaded.
'searchClient.exe': Loaded 
'C:\opt\utils\axis-c-1-5-win32\bin\HTTPTransport.dll', No symbols loaded.
'searchClient.exe': Loaded 
'C:\opt\utils\axis-c-1-5-win32\bin\HTTPChannel.dll', No symbols loaded.

However, once it step into the generated stub code and call initialize at :
   if (AXIS_SUCCESS != m_pCall->initialize(CPP_RPC_PROVIDER))
           return RetArray;
it throws an exception which has a exception code 61 and and error msg: 
"Error: expression cannot be evaluated"
as observed from the "Locals" window; at the same time, the output is:

First-chance exception at 0x7c81eb33 in searchClient.exe: Microsoft C++ 
exception: HTTPTransportException @ 0x014ff854.
First-chance exception at 0x7c81eb33 in searchClient.exe: Microsoft C++ 
exception: axiscpp::AxisGenException @ 0x014ff8f4.
First-chance exception at 0x7c81eb33 in searchClient.exe: Microsoft C++ 
exception: [rethrow] @ 0x00000000.

Any idea what have I done wrong?

I am trying to rebuild the axis to get an debuggable version - but 
without luck neither, the error from ant is:
4290: C++ exception specification ignored except to indicate a function 
is not __declspec(nothrow)
      [cc] C:\opt\work\axis-c-src-1-5-win32\src\engine\Axis.cpp(302) :

      [cc] C:\opt\work\axis-c-src-1-5-win32\src\engine\Axis.cpp(302) : 
fatal error C1903: unable to
recover from previous error(s); stopping compilation
where the code is like this:

static volatile long g_uModuleInitializing = 0;
static void start_initializing()
{
   long exchange = 1;
   long comperand = 0;
   while (InterlockedCompareExchange(((void **)&g_uModuleInitializing), 
(void *)&exchange, (void *)&comperand));
}
the line 302 is the last line where calling 
InterlockedCompareExchange(((void **)...
Any suggestion?

By the way, the same code works ok on linux.

Thanks!
Tao
