#212 Assertion when trying to use libgerbv

[Alexis FOUQUET]

Hi everybody,

I'm trying to use gerbv as a library, just to "parse" some gerber files (using libgerbv actually).
I'm working under Windows, with Visual Studio 2013.

So, I cross-compiled gerbv under a Fedora Virtual Box using this tuto : http://chitlesh.ch/wordpress/blog/2009/06/14/using-fedoras-windows-cross-compilers-2/

An so, it worked and I added the libgerv-1.dll and libgerbv.a to my Visual project, and also the other dependencies (gtk, cairo...). Then it compiled well.

To test it, I added the code contained in the "exemple1.c" provided file, in my "main".
The call of gerbv_create_project is OK, but the call of gerbv_open_layer_from_filename is not, and I get an assert that I can't understand and resolve, that's why I'm asking to you.

The error is :
Debug Assertion Failed!
Program: ... .exe
File : ... fstat.c
Line: 90
Expression: (_osfile(fildes) a FOPEN)

It seems to come from the call of gerb_fopen (in gerb_file.c), when it calls the fstat function (in the WIN32 part). A trace-debugging shows that the first parameter of fstat (fd->fileno) is equal to 3.

Notice that it's the first thing I do in my program so it can't be a memory leak problem.

Thanks you in advance because I'm really lost and google doesn't help me..,
By the way, congratulation for your software that seems great.

Alexis.
