Compatibility Issues with Visual Studio 2015

Open ghost opened this issue 7 years ago • 1 comments

When Visual Studio 2015 launches external build tools, it will commonly launch them under cmd.exe. This can happen due to an MSBuild pre/post-build event, or during invocations from extensions (VisualGDB, for instance).

Processes launched in such a way will often crash with error code 0xc0000409 (-1073740791), which is (apparently) a stack buffer overrun. I'd wager Clink was the culprit, as uninstalling it remedied this issue.

Versions: Microsoft Visual Studio Enterprise 2015 (Version 14.0.25420.01 Update 3) Microsoft Windows 10 Pro N (Version 10.0.14393 Build 14393) Clink 0.4.8
