PRB: One Cause of Fatal Exit 0x0140 "Local Heap Is Busy"

Q75359



The information in this article applies to:


  • Microsoft Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) versions 3.0, 3.1





SYMPTOMS

The debugging version of Windows reports Fatal Exit 0x0140.



CAUSE

A module with no heap (such as a no-data dynamic-link library) uses LocalAlloc to allocate local memory. Even if the application does not call LocalAlloc directly, application startup code in the C run-time libraries allocates memory to store the command-line arguments.



RESOLUTION

Make sure that the proper library is specified on the LINK command line.
