The crash did not occure after we changed the calling function for this API this morning.
Although we are not sure what led the ATSUDirectGetLayoutDataArrayPtrFromTextLayout() crash, we think it could be caused by our code. Maybe we touched uncertain memory?
Anyway,Thanks a lot for your help.

Thanks for the info. Filed bug 5579678. I'll check it out today and get back to you with an update.

some additional information:
It is unrelated with the string and font, I test different args, the crash are the same.
As for "crash every time", not all invokes for our function (see code segment in first mail, call entry for this API) will crash. but in a certain call, it crash all times. This certain call is second time this function is invoked, use the same arguments with first call which won't crash, so strange.
Thanks!

Hi, Daniel, thanks for your quick response,
For your questions:
• Does ATSUDrawText crash when you pass it the same objects and settings?
Yes
• What font and text are you using when it crashes?
Tahoma,the string is "aemnnxEM"
• Does it crash every time?
Yes, it always crashed in one certain call.
Sorry, I think we can hardly provide the sample test code at that time.
There was not anything in particular that had been changed in this routine or deeper in the ApplyKerning between the builds you noted. So a few questions:
• Does ATSUDrawText crash when you pass it the same objects and settings?
• What font and text are you using when it crashes?
• Does it crash every time?
If you can file a bug, preferably with your example test that demonstrates the crash, that would be a good start (or just send me the answers to the above questions at least). I'll investigate it further for you.

Hi,
Our carbon application works well at Mac OS X 10.4, 10.5(9A527), but from 10.5(9A559), it will crash on a ATSUI API call: ATSUDirectGetLayoutDataArrayPtrFromTextLayout(), but not all calls for this API will crash. We want to know, what is the difference of ATSUI in these versions? Does it a bug with Mac OS X? Can you give us some suggestions? Thanks in advance!
code segment:
short utf16 = 0;
ItemCount glyphCount;
ATSLayoutRecord *layoutRecords;
ATSUTextLayout textLayout;
