Windows 8 RTM - C++ - Exception 0xC0000139: Entry Point Not Found.

Question

Hi,

I have a problem with porting our C++ application from Windows/iOS/Android/Symbian/Bada/.. to Windows 8 Metro (Modern) (Windows 8 Pro RTM 64bits, only C++ and DirectX). Application is really big and doesn't content any own libraries (we used only libpng, zlib and fmod).

After start application, before, than system call Main, I see this exception:

First-chance exception at 0x77C0B2D8 (ntdll.dll) in myapp.exe: 0xC0000139: Entry Point Not Found.
If there is a handler for this exception, the program may be safely continued.

Do you know this problem?

Answer 1

No -- did this work with pre-release versions of VS2012/Win8?

Answer 2

No, it's new project in final version of Visual Studio 2012.

Answer 3

Does the app run after continuing from this FCE?

Do unmodified wizard generated projects run?

Which project type did you use as a base, and how did you modify it?

Answer 4

Sounds like a problem of some missing dependencies.  I would suggest running "dumpbin /imports" on all your app's binaries and ensuring that all the referenced DLLs are either in your package or available in Windows itself.

Answer 5

Thanks for answer, I used unmodified Direct3D App Metro template and I only added two libs.

Answer 6

Hi Raman, thanks for answer. This is not problem with dependencies probably. I check dependencies in app and in all libraries with dumpbin. 

I will try remove all using of thirdparty libs.

Answer 7

What is the entry point shown by 'dumpbin /headers myapp.exe'?

Answer 8

Entry point is:  B5B03 entry point (004B5B03) @ILT+27390(_WinMainCRTStartup)

Answer 9

Solved.:) The problem was in Audio section in FMOD library. I removed FMOD and everything started to work fine. Now, I must find another audio library.

Thanks all
