           Summary: Registry: corrupted value
           Product: D
           Version: 1.018
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: blocker
          Priority: P2
         Component: Phobos
        AssignedTo: bugzilla@digitalmars.com
        ReportedBy: keystuffs@netscape.net


Sometimes the value returned from the registry in corrupted.

Ex:
  writefln(Registry.classesRoot().getKey(".txt").getValue("").value_SZ());
  Display "☺   ile" instead of "txtfile".

  writefln(Registry.classesRoot().getKey(".rar").getValue("").value_SZ());
  Display "☺   AR" instead of "WinRAR".


But:
  writefln(Registry.classesRoot().getKey(".html").getValue("").value_SZ());
  Display "htmlfile".

I tried others keys and it seems that if the length of the value is less than 8, the value returned is corrupted.

I was able to fix this bug:
in the function Reg_QueryValue_, I just added a .dup
    case REG_VALUE_TYPE.REG_EXPAND_SZ:
        value = std.string.toString(cast(char*)data);
        value = value.dup; // fix the bug.
        break;
