ResourceEditor::ScanDirectory() pukes on Custom Resource
I'm trying to add a new resource item to exehead that makensis chokes on during ResourceEditor processing. I think the recursive call to ScanDirectory() is the culprit. Just add a custom resource item to exehead and you should see the crash. Who's knowledgable with this code? kichik? I could really use some help, or a workaround.

KiCHiK wrote the resource modifying code.

CResourceEdior pays no attention to the content of the resources so it shouldn't give problems with custom resources. I will look into it.

I have added a custom resource and it worked perfectly. I can't see any reason it will crash on custom resources because CResourceEditor doesn't even know what a custom resource is. Are you using the latest CVS version? If it doesn't work with it either attach an example, or if you don't want it public email it to me (kichik at users dot sf dot net).

kichik, i've decided to take a different approach to my problem, so no more need for a custom resource. thanks.

Can I still get an example please? I would like to fix this if it really is a bug.
