fstream declaration exception after hardclosing console / c++

Question

I stumbled upon the following problem:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <Windows.h>

using namespace std;

class TestClass
{
public:
    ~TestClass();
};

TestClass::~TestClass()
{
    fstream f;
}

TestClass test;

int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
    Sleep(10000);
}

This is a simple example so that you can reproduce my error. Everything works fine until I close console window manually (by pressing X in the console corner) while Sleep. Access Violation Exception is thrown at the

fstream f;

line in destructor. Is there any way to use fstream after manual console closing? Or i'm doing something totally wrong?

UPD:

Stack looks like this:

Answer 1

According to this stack trace, the problem is indeed from a call from fstream's constructor: ios_base::init() initializes some variable with widen(' '), which calls ctype::widen on what is probably a null or destroyed ctype object (returned by use_facet), which causes a crash when it tries to call a virtual member function.

Conclusion: some vital objects in the CRT are destroyed before your TestClass object is, therefore you can't use CRT types in your global destructor.
