Hi.

I'm developing a web server application using threads and sockets. It's quite
simple but it throws "Error: Access Violation" and stops responding for
incoming connections very frequently. When it occurs I have to Ctrl-C the
server and restart to continue its work. I've put tons of debug info to trace
the error but I've found no order on where it throws. So for a try I disabled
the GC and now it works as it should.
Why does this happen? How could I re-enable the GC (memory consuming is
increasing by every connection) without having to fear of Access Violation
errors?

Regards,
Nahon

Access Violations can be caused by a few things.  One of these is
attempting to use a null object, but it doesn't sound like that.  The
other is attempting to use an object that's been deleted.

D's GC should never delete an object you still have a reference to; are
you deleting objects manually?  If so, that could be your problem:
you're deleting an object and then trying to use it again.

It's really the only thing I can think of at the moment; sorry.

Could also be because you're passing D char[]'s to C functions that 
expect char*.  Any time you call a C function that takes a string, you 
need to call toStringz() on it.
