[Clp] CLP exception poped up when solving an LP

[usa usa]

Hi,

I have defined USE_MEMCPY in CoinHelperFunctions.hpp and disabled all
compile optimization for speed for all Clp libs. When I run myApp.exe in
debug mode from Visual Studio 2013, I got error:


*      Unhandled exception at 0x7541C54F in myApp.exe: Microsoft C++
exception: [rethrow] at memory location 0x00000000.*
which is different from last error.

It seems that a NULL pointer is dereference ?

Thanks,
