exe. Does Not Run Properly Every Time

[Muhasaresa]

Hello :D

I made a console app in Visual Studio C++ 2010. When I run the .exe it opens, but the app does not function like it should. It only works when I reopen it a several times. I tried compiling in DEV C++ and I didn't get any problems. Why is this not happening in Visual Studio?

Thanks for any help,

Hello, Muhasaresa.

Can you specify what happens when you execute the console? A console shouldn't act like that.

OK :D

I made an encryptor that can encrypt and decrypt text.

The encryptor works fine every time no problem, but the DECRYPTOR only works properly on a rare occasion. The problem is that it only seems to decrypt the first letter instead of the whole string. Even when i try decrypting exactly the same code, it only works sometimes. But when I use Dev C++ there is never a problem (exactly the same C++ code).

I just don't understand how a simple .exe works sometimes and other times it doesn't.

Thanks for the help :D

Post the code, we may be able to help, else it would be pure guesswork.

I think I might have located the source of the problem:

There might be something wrong with this part of the code:

int o;
string intercon;

if (intercon == "128" || intercon == "100") {o = 3; cout <<"test";}
      else  {o = 2;}

This is quite an important part of the code. When I tested it out to see if the statements actually worked by putting in cout <<"test"; I found out that even if "intercon" was "128" or "100", "test" was never couted out, which probably means int o was not turned into 3.

THanks for the help,
