Description

When you are trying to debug IDE addins and running an instance of the IDE under the debugger every time you run the application the following exception is displayed in the Event Log and the debugger stops.

Debug Output: HEAP[bds.exe]: Process bds.exe (5696)
Debug Output: Invalid Address specified to RtlFreeHeap( 00140000, 0C465508 ) Process bds.exe (5696)

Needless to say, this is extremely frustrating.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Create a new Win32 Package
2. Select Run | Parameters menu item
3. For host application, enter the path to your D2006 BDS.exe file
4. Run package (no code needed in package)

While the IDE is starting you will see that the run has stopped on an exception and if you look in the Event Log window you get an idea of what has caused this exception.

I agree that this is annoying, but IMO this is definitely not a showstopper. It doesn't crash, there's no dataloss, I don't think this is total failure and debugging the IDE with the IDE is also not something every developer does every day.

I noticed this the other day when I ran the IDE up under WinDbg. It may not have any known consequences, but it does look rather nasty. If this was my code, I would certainly want to investigate further.
