[Insight-users] Sobel Edge Detection: Problem in Windows XP with VS2005: Take 2

Hi all,

I sent this email a few weeks ago, but as yet I have no reply. Has 
anyone else experienced this problem?

I recently tried to use itkSobelEdgeDetectionImageFilter (source code is 
at the end of this email).

In *Debug *mode the following error is thrown:
    Debug Assertion Failed!
    Program: ...
    File: C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\VC\include\vector
    Line: 756

    Expression: vector subscript out of range

I think this error is related to: 
http://public.kitware.com/pipermail/insight-users/2007-January/020483.html.

In *Release *mode the following error is thrown:
    itkTestMain.exe - Application Error
    The exception unknown software exception (0xc000000d) occurred in 
the application at location 0x78138a8a.

My system is as such:
    Platform: Windows XP SP2
    Computer: Intel Pentium 3.00 GHz, dual core
    Compiler: Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 (v8.050727.363 ie. SP1 Beta)
    CMake: 2.4.2
    ITK: 2.8.1 (compiled in both Debug and Release modes)

I have had no problems compiling and running applications using numerous 
other filters on this system. Any ideas as to the cause of the error 
with the Sobel Edge Detection filter (source code below)? Am I missing 
something so obvious that I can't see it? I can not debug the issue 
because of the vector subscript error described above. I have not tried 
the fix proposed in the insight-users post above because this seems to 
be for Debug mode only, and my error appears in Release mode also. (FYI: 
the cthead1.png image is in the same directory as the produced executable.)

Thanks for your help.

Dan
