Tracking down a certain debug error...

    Hi everyone,

    I'm hoping that someone with a bit more C++ development experience than myself can help out here.

    I'm using Visual Studio 6.0 to develop a DLL that will function as an audio effects processing plug-in (VST format, in case anyone is familiar with it). I'm using an SDK for the development, this includes a number of sample VC++ 6 projects which build and run without any trouble.

    The problem is this: when I try to load my plug-in into a host application, I get an debug error. It varies depending on the host I use, but looks something like this:
    Debug Error!

    Program: C:...cubasesx.exe

    DAMAGE: after Normal block (#46) at 0x.....

    Abort/Retry/Fail

    I'm led to believe this is due to a memory corruption/overrun of some sort. Problem is, my debugger won't give me any clues as to what is going on... Does anyone have any advice on what strategies I could use to track this bug down, apart from going through my thousands of lines of code, line by line...

    The error also occurs when the plug-in is closed, in case this information helps...

    Thanks!

    (sorry about the double post, someone feel free to delete one of these)
