           Summary: Access Violation at readln
           Product: D
           Version: 1.015
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows
            Status: NEW
          Keywords: EH
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: DMD

+++ This issue was initially created as a clone of Issue #1706 +++

I got an access-violation in line 22. When i change line 131 to 'char[] pattern
= "pj-?0000";', that means not loading "pj-5000", the program runs without an
error. That looks like a bug because in another version of the program i can
load "pj-10000" after "pj-5000" with no problems.
The URL for the program is 'http://paste.pocoo.org/show/13445/', for "pj-5000"
'http://paste.pocoo.org/show/13446/' and for "pj-10000"
'http://paste.pocoo.org/show/13447/'.
Thanks in advance
HW

Can you please try to reduce it to a smaller example? 99K compressed is awfully large, and requires a lot of time investment for someone else to figure out what is happening with it.

It's unclear from your response.  Is the bug fixed or not?  If not, what's the current problem?

I tried to reproduce the problem on linux with 1.015 and couldn't.  I tried both with and without -O, both with and without -release.  I tried reading the 2000 before the 10000, and vice versa.

It's possible that this is a windows specific failure, but...

Please provide exact reproduction steps to demonstrate the problem.

The problem is line 21:

    FILE* file = fopen(cast(char*)filename, "r");

You can't just cast a char[] to a char* like that. C functions like fopen expect a terminating null character in every string, and your char[] doesn't have one.

The correct way to do this is to convert it to a null-terminated string:

    FILE* file = fopen(toStringz(filename), "r");
