> In lib/cpp/src/concurrency/TimerManager.cpp the  TimerManager::stop() method has this loop:
>    if (doStop) {
>      // Clean up any outstanding tasks
>     for (task_iterator ix =  taskMap_.begin(); ix != taskMap_.end(); ix++) {
>       taskMap_.erase(ix);
>     }
> but, to quote Scott Meyers in "Effective STL", "when an element of a container is erased, all iterators that point to that element are invalidated", so this can result in undefined behavior.
> All that really needs to happen here is this:
>    if (doStop) {
>      // Clean up any outstanding tasks
>      taskMap_.clear();
>     }
> I discovered this by making a Xcode project using the entire contents of lib/cpp/src to make a command line utility. Since there is only one file in the tree that defines main(), I could get away with it. I did a Debug build and ran it and it blew up at the location I identified.
