I am writing a small tool for analyzing simple B Machine substitutions as part of a college research work. The code successfully parse test inputs of the form mySubst := var1 + var2. However, I get a pop-up error message saying "This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. " In the command prompt window, I get an "Assertion failed message". The main program is given below:
// BMachineTree.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.

The output I get on running the program is:

I will appreciate any help in resolving this problem.
