Thread: memcpy working strangely in msvc 2005

Hi, im trying to create a file mapped object, creating it works fine, and using lstrcpy i can copy characters to the file object with no problems. However, when i use memcpy I run into problems. This is the exact code I am using in Dev-Cpp and it works bueatifully

Code:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
    int error = 0;
    initialize();
    TCHAR s1[5] = {1,2,3,4,5};
	switch (error)
	{
		case 0:
		{
			if ( WaitForSingleObject(m_hMutex, dwMaxWait) == WAIT_OBJECT_0 )
			{
				memcpy(m_pViewOfFile, s1,5);
				ReleaseMutex(m_hMutex);
			}
			break;
		}
		case 4:
		{
			printf("yay\n");
			break;
		}
	}

    TCHAR s2[dwMemoryFileSize];
    if ( WaitForSingleObject(m_hMutex, dwMaxWait) == WAIT_OBJECT_0 )
    {
        memcpy(s2, m_pViewOfFile, 5);
        ReleaseMutex(m_hMutex);
    }
    for (int i = 0; i < 5; i++)
    {
        printf("%d ",s2[i]);
    }
    printf("\n");
    getchar();
	destroy();
    return 0;
}

the console shows 1 2 3 4 5 as expected
However when I try to use this exact code in mscv (the initialization is slightly different, however it did work when i was using lstrcpy, the only thing changed is lstrcpy to memcpy) i get a rather garbled result.

1 2 52227 542428 542428

it worked fine when i was using lstrcpy, and works fine in devcpp. Anyone have any ideas.
