QMap <QString, QString> deleting and RtlValidateHeap exception

[MaxoBik]

Hi.
I am faced with the strange behavior, which is occurs when removing QMap <QString, QString>:

QFile file("some.xml");
 
    if (file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly))
    {
        QByteArray data = file.readAll();
 
        QDomDocument domDoc;
        QMap<QString,QString> nodeMap;
        if (domDoc.setContent( data ))
        {
            QDomNode topNode = domDoc.documentElement().firstChild();
            while ( !topNode.isNull()) {
                nodeMap.insert( topNode.toElement().tagName(), topNode.toElement().text() );
                topNode = topNode.nextSibling();
            }
        }
        qDebug() << nodeMap;
    }
   // <- Right here, after the local variable nodeMap was deleted from stack, I getting the exception RtlValidateHeap

QFile file("some.xml");
 
    if (file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly))
    {
        QByteArray data = file.readAll();
 
        QDomDocument domDoc;
        QMap<QString,QString> nodeMap;
        if (domDoc.setContent( data ))
        {
            QDomNode topNode = domDoc.documentElement().firstChild();
            while ( !topNode.isNull()) {
                nodeMap.insert( topNode.toElement().tagName(), topNode.toElement().text() );
                topNode = topNode.nextSibling();
            }
        }
        qDebug() << nodeMap;
    }
   // <- Right here, after the local variable nodeMap was deleted from stack, I getting the exception RtlValidateHeap

Here is Call Stack when RtlValidateHeap exception is happening:

It looks like an double delete or access to the dangling pointers in QByteArray:: operator>=(), but I can't figure out how to solve this problem.

I cannot see any obvious corruption of the heap in this snippet of code; it may be in another part of the program.

By the way, your code calls topNode.toElement() without checking that topNode is an element.

Problem was in the project settings - under debug version of the project, was set load QtXml.dll instead of QtXmld.dll.
