An aircraft that I am developing caused Flightgear to crash on the Vista
box, but not on the XP one.
This I traced to some bad coding in my JSBsim aero file:-
<table> <!-- Ch-delta
elevator -->
<independentVar lookup="row">
fcs/elevator-pos-deg</independentVar>
<tableData>
<!-- **********************************************
No surface deflections specified in input file
********************************************** -->
</tableData>
</table>
It was an empty table generated by Datcom+ which I had not got around to
filling in.
The XP machine, which I use most of the time does not hiccup at this.
Flightgear on the Vista laptop also crashes with something that appears to
be related to the sound patches, AND also every time that I exit.
The XP box sees none of these problems.
>From this I now believe that the problem is that the Vista laptop is less
tolerant of run-time errors than the XP box.
As far as Sample_openal.hxx is concerned all I can guess from my debug
sessions at is that there is some kind of a problem at the time that
"Rumble.wav" is used and it is even possible that the problem is at the XML
code level.
