Visual C++ runtime error

When I click the OMShell.exe, the program stops with runtime error massage as
below:

[ Miscrosoft Visual C++ Runtime Library ]

"Runtime Error

Program : C:\OpenModelica1.4.2\bin\OMShell.exe
.... "

I tried to solve this problem by using software such as anti-virus, ad-aware
program and registry fix program. But it were in vain.

I am using the "MS visual c++ 2005 express, .Net framework 3.0 and MS Platform
SDK SP1. Operation System is Window XP home edition.

How can I solve this trouble? Please let me know the solution.

Hi,

You can try our latest nightly-build and see if that error happens again:
​http://www.ida.liu.se/~pelab/modelica/OpenModelica/OMC/nightly-
builds/OpenModelica-NIGHTLY-BUILD-2007_01_03-06_11.msi
This one was build using VisualStudio 2005.

Also, you can try to start omc.exe first, then start OMShell:
Start->Run
$ cd c:\OpenModelica1.4.x\bin
$ omc +d=interactiveCorba
Now try to start OMShell.exe.

Also, look for omc.exe in Task Manager and kill all of them before
starting OMShell.

As we don't have any XP Home available is hard to test this problem.
We have tested OpenModelica on Windows 2000 Pro, Windows XP Pro,
Windows XP Media Center and various flavours of Linux.

I just tried on a system with Norton Security installed.
The same error happened to me too.
It seems that the firewall was preventing OMShell from
starting omc.exe and connecting to it.

You should set your firewall on learning, then start
OMShell. I think this will get rid of the problem.
