Visual studio 2008 "Debug Assertion Failed" message while calling QDomElement::text() function

I have included the source, the error and the stack trace. How do I resolve this issue? I need pointers(explanation) on how to proceed regarding this

Source Code :

QFile xmlInputFile(".\\gatewayipmonitor.xml");  
xmlInputFile.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly);

QByteArray xmlData(xmlInputFile.readAll());

QDomDocument doc;
doc.setContent(xmlData);

QDomElement docEl(doc.documentElement());
const QString tagName(docEl.tagName());

docEl.text();

When the last line is executed - I get the message

Windows has triggered a breakpoint in tests.exe.

This may be due to a corruption of the heap, which indicates a bug in tests.exe or any of the DLLs it has loaded.

This may also be due to the user pressing F12 while tests.exe has focus.

The o开发者_如何学运维utput window may have more diagnostic information. "

When I click continue - I further get the message -

I was running the program in the release build but linking against debug build libraries(Qtcored.lib). That was the issue.

it's not heap corruption. you're deleting a bad qstring. find out how that qstring instance or pointer(most likely) was used when it was actuallly bad.
