Invalid pointer error for static built Axom linked into a separate shared library

[ldowen]

I get a free(): invalid pointer error on this static variable:

axom/src/axom/sidre/core/Group.hpp

Line 1933 in 5374375

AXOM_SIDRE_EXPORT static const std::vector<std::string> s_io_protocols;

This only occurs if our code is built as shared libraries but Axom is built as static libraries. If Axom is built as shared libraries or our code is built as a static library, we don't get this error. This was not an issue for version 0.7.0 when this static variable did not exist.

@ldowen thank you, does this happen when your program closes?

This sounds like a c++ static finalization issue.

Ah right, I forgot to mention that: the error occurs when the program closes.
