Hi All
I have the code below on a windows c++ build. I'm using Xapian 1.0.6
built with the win32 build files. The program was built with Visual
Studio 2008 Express
It creates the folder "????research" (yes with odd characters) and
then exits without any errors.
string dbpath = "research";
try {
// Open the database.
Xapian::WritableDatabase database;
database = Xapian::WritableDatabase(dbpath, DB_CREATE_OR_OPEN);
} catch (const Error &error) {
cout << error.get_msg() << "\n";
}
return 0;

For instance, if you add a document with some document data, does the stored string also have unexpected top bit set bytes in it?

Unless anyone has any other suggestions, I think you're probably gonna have to attack the VC++ debugger to that and step through to find out where it fails, and possibly gain some insight as to where it gets the directory name wrong. I don't know if the library build you're using has debugging symbols, but if not you'll probably want to rebuild it.
