Error: Illegal min or max specification..

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
 I'm trying to use libtesseract_full.a and now libtesseract_api.a in my proyect. I use Qt
software. I just install Qt qt 2009.03.01 and works, but after I reset my 
computer not. I get
the next error
Error: Illegal min or max specification!

Fatal error: No error trap defined!
Signal_termination_handler called with signal 5002

if I call tessbaseapi in main before QApplication it works. It must be 
something gcc what I
don't know.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 3.0, with 2.04 I get the error too.

Please provide any additional information below.
Ubuntu 9.04 updated. I have read other issues.

This is a piece of my code
tesseract::TessBaseAPI  *api;
api = new tesseract::TessBaseAPI();
setenv("TESSDATA_PREFIX","./",0);
api->Init(NULL,"eng");   <---Here happens the error

Thanks

ok, Qt and tesseract api work in linux with "su -" -> ./qtcreator. Anyway it's a
problem of Qt software I think. If someone knows how it work without that 
command
please tell me. Thanks and sorry for my english
Un saludo

With NULL as the first parameter to Init, it will try too guess the location of 
the 
tessdata directory. It looks like this guess is going wrong because of the 
initialization of Qt, so use a non-NULL explicit path instead.

I have the solution

#include <locale.h>
setlocale (LC_NUMERIC, "C");

I have same issue, with tesseract-3.02 in Qt 4.8.
Using explicit path to datadir do nothing.
But setting LC_NUMERIC both from code and from shell works.
I think tesseract should run with any locale, but, for me, when LC_NUMERIC is 
ru_RU.UTF-8 - it's broken.
