is there a bug in mfc71d.dll?

[Guest]

this is the function that the problem lies in. it is in MFC file ctlpset.cpp

LPSTGMEDIUM lpStgMedium, REFCLSID fmtid)

if (!(lpFormatEtc->tymed & (TYMED_ISTREAM|TYMED_ISTORAGE)))
{
TRACE(traceAppMsg, 0, "Propset only supported for stream or storage.\n");
return FALSE;
}

LPSTORAGE lpStorage = NULL; // here they initialize the lpStorage,
lpStream to NULL
LPSTREAM lpStream = NULL;
//then they test whether the output file is a stream or storage.

if (lpFormatEtc->tymed & TYMED_ISTORAGE)
{

//if it is storage,then the lpStorage is assigned a new value
//but lpStream keep the NULL value.

// Caller wants propset data in a storage object.

}

else
{

if (lpStream == NULL)
return FALSE;
}
}

//but in later program, we can find that, if there is a fail in the
process, they always release lpStream,lpStorage togetgher. so we can tell,
if our ocx control adhere to MS's rule, it runs fluently, if not, it may have
problem.

I have also met this problem.

I use wizard to create a ocx, and without add anyting in it. when I plug it
in my form, and use it's Idataobject->getdatahere to save it's properties to
a stream.
it exposes a crash. I have found MS has done some modification in the MFC
class.
but I don't know why?
