Create Process doesn't work

I'm creating a process and making a lot of kernel objects requisition to the system. My code is that:

int main(){
    //Cria processo para o Data Viewer Unit
        LPSTARTUPINFOA si;
    PROCESS_INFORMATION pi;

    // Start the child process. 
    if(!CreateProcessA( 
                "E:\\Documents\\Faculdade\\Matérias\\Automação em Tempo Real\\TP 3\\DataViewerUnit\\Debug\\DataViewerUnit.exe", // Module name
                NULL,                                   // Command line
                NULL,                                   // Process handle not inheritable
                NULL,                                   // Thread handle not inheritable
                FALSE,                              // Set handle inheritance to FALSE
                CREATE_NEW_CONSOLE,   // No creation flags
                NULL,                                   // Use parent's environment block
                NULL,                                   // Use parent's starting directory 
                si,                                     // Pointer to STARTUPINFO structure
                &pi )                                   // Pointer to PROCESS_INFORMATION structure
    ) 
    {
        printf( "CreateProcess failed (%d).\n", GetLastError() );
        return 0;
    }

  // Wait until child process exits.
  WaitForSingleObject( pi.hProcess, INFINITE );

}

I have commented almost of all this code and the create process runs ok. When I left more than 1 kernel object, the program stop to run and windows vista shows a message of "This program stop to run...". The other process has just a cout saying something...

I would like to know what is wrong with my code. Regards, Leandro Lima

You're passing an uninitialized pointer to a STARTUPINFO structure. You need to declare a STARTUPINFO structure, initialize its fields, and pass a pointer to it.

Use zeromemory or memset and initialize your ProcessInfo and StartupInfo

This is declaring a pointer to a startup info struct declare the struct the and pass it in by reference LPSTARTUPINFOA si

set si.cb = sizeof(STARTUPINFO)

Something Like this

PROCESS_INFORMATION PI;
STARTUPINFO SI;   
SI.dwFlags =  STARTF_USESTDHANDLES;
SI.cb = sizeof(STARTUPINFO);
char * sCommandLine = _strdup(sCommand.c_str());
if(!CreateProcess(NULL,sCommandLine,NULL,NULL,true,CREATE_NO_WINDOW,NULL,NULL,&SI,&PI))
