Fatal error on Windows XP when compiled with XP Targeting in Visual Studio 2015

Question

I'm using TR2's filesystem library to retrieve the last modified time of a file with the last_write_time function however a fatal error occurs on Windows XP when last_write_time is called.

I'm unable to isolate the code that's causing a fatal error on Windows XP but not on Windows 7/8/10.

DLL project(fatal error)

Here's my attempt at isolating the problematic code with a EXE project which does not give a fatal error: main.cpp

Here's the error:

Exception: 0xC0000005 (ACCESS_VIOLATION) at 001B:07043EAC

The instruction at '0x07043EAC' referenced memory at '0x00000000'.

The memory could not be 'read'.

@sanjay - But they still supply a compiler targeting XP. :-) — Bo Persson, Sep 07 '15 at 09:35
Visual Studio 15 also has a `` that is not TR2, but C++14. Might be something to test (I cannot, as I have no XP-machines left). — Bo Persson, Sep 07 '15 at 09:46
@Bo Persson Filesystem isn't part of C++14, it's expected to be in C++17 though — , Sep 07 '15 at 17:44
You could enable dump files on XP, and look at the error on your development machine. — Dialecticus, Sep 07 '15 at 23:22

I guess this is the TLS issue on XP and Server 2003?
