program crashes at start

[wongjoekmeu]

Hiya all,
I have a strange problem. I have compiled a program with g++ compiler.
It seems to compile fine. I can even compile it with debug (-g) option.
However at the very beginning when I run the program I get a
segmentation fault. "Program receive SIGSEGV signal." is what I see
when I use a debugger. I have even put a print state right in the
beginning of the main() function. It seems that the program does not
reach this state at all. Since the crash does not deliver any more
information, I am stuck. Can anyone help me please with solving this
problem by giving me some direction ?
Many thanks in advance.

Since the OP doesn't supply any code for diagnostics I am assuming that
he has at least one static object of a type which has a constructor that
accesses invalid memory.

My crystal ball tells me the following FAQ may be your problem:

If that's not it, you're going to have to post a short _compilable_
example that illustrates the problem.

Best regards,

Tom

Run a backtrace.
