Compatibility problems with Matrox Imaging Library

pijnappel wrote: Hello,   our application uses Matrox Imaging Library (MIL-LITE v. 8.0) to display a live video stream. When I load a skin using SkinFramework everything seems to work fine until I close the application window.   In the DeInitialization function for MIL components, where MIL Threads are cleaned up I get the following error message:   Run-Time Check Failure #0 - The value of ESP was not properly saved across a function call. This is usually a result of calling a function declared with one calling convention with a function pointer declared with a different calling convention.   Commenting out the LoadSkin function of SkinFramework everything shuts down without errors. I already reported this to Matrox, but no response till today. Could this be a problem caused by SkinFrameworks hooking functions? I'm thankfull for every suggestion.   Thanks   pijnappel

Maybe the cleanup of hooked threads by MIL could cause this error?    Update: I searched the MIL Header files and found out that the MIL functions I need to use include __stdcall. Do you know a solution to handle this without changing the MIL Library (I can't do that anyway)?

I found the solution.

I removed the window handle I assigned to the Matrox live video from the codejock skin framework and now it works as expected.

Thanks for your suggestions

Yes, some dlls don't like when SkinFramework hook them and solution to exclude them using Exclude method.


You can run Process Explorer from sysinternals - http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx
it can show list of loaded dlls and use exclude all ado related.

SkinFramework1.ExcludeModule "Module.dll"
