[Xapian-discuss] Databases on Windows

[Colin Bell]

Thank you very much Charlie, your a Genius!

I changed it to release and it creates the folder and begins to  
populate it.....

but then I get

"Debug Assertion Failed!"
f:\dd\vctools\crt_bld\self_x86\crt\src\write.c

_osfile(fh) & FOPEN


It creates the following three files before exiting with the above error

flintlock
iamflint
postlist.baseA


It's good to move forward though ;-)
