TGeoManager crash when Exporting geometry as ".C"

Running v5.21/04 on Windows Vista Ultimate, I am having trouble exporting a geometry file as C++ … exporting as .xml works fine.

Here is a session extract:

root [4] geom->Export("C:/temp/cmsGeom10.C");

at this point there is an exception in the C++ runtime.

Hi Julian,

Does this happen also on Linux? We will need anyway the cmsGeom10.root file.
