i use VC++ 6.0  and i have a project with ATL/WTL.

the following code DO work fine in debug.

but, in relese, it DO NOT work.  

======================================================================
//  "imglist" is CImageList  and is public member of class "CMyView".

HINSTANCE hinst = _Module.GetResourceInstance();
HICON hIcon;

ATLASSERT( imglist.Create(16, 16, ILC_COLOR16|ILC_MASK, 1, 1) );

hIcon = ::LoadIcon(hinst, MAKEINTRESOURCE(IDI_ARROW0));

if (imglist.AddIcon(hIcon) == -1)                        //   <- runtime error in release
        MessageBox(_T("error"), _T(""), MB_OK);

=======================================================================

in debug mode, this code work well.

on the other hand,  why do not this code work in release ???

what is wrong ??

help me.

thanx.

A VERY serious error in your source - you've put production code
in ASSERT!!!
