Compile the program with the the -g option and use gdb to debug it
just like you would any other program.  STATUS ACCESS VIOLATION means
that you are accessing memory that you shouldn't be.  Possibly you are
accessing a pointer with garbage in it.

This is no mystery.  The answer on how to debug problems with your program
is almost always going to be "run it under a debugger".  That's why debuggers
were invented.
