terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc' Linux with AWS-SDK

Question

I am using aws sdk for linux to transfer file to s3. I have compiled the shared library of aws sdk. Transfer of file fails with bad alloc error so thought to explore the example given by aws-sdk. I am trying to run the example to list the bucket on s3 link . Compiling the application using command:

g++ testingAws.cpp  -I . -L  . -laws-cpp-sdk-transfer -laws-cpp-sdk-core -laws-cpp-sdk-s3

Everytime the executables terminates with message:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
what():  std::bad_alloc

Bad alloc happens when it invokes the function: AwsDoc::S3::PutObject(bucket_name, object_name, clientConfig); Any suggestion if I am missing something. As well how to debug bad alloc issue.

I tried to list the bucket on my s3 server. Backtrace:

Backtrace: terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc' what():

It's been resolved. I was using header files that were from windows. There was no compilation error so thought everything should work as expectation but later I have taken header files from the Linux machine and that has resolved it.
