Access Violation Writing Location with SDL_Net - c++

Question

I've been struggling with this for half a day and it hasn't improved, so here it's:
I have a class called Network Handler that will handle all network connections in a game I'm making in SDL, I'm using SDL_Net for all the networking. Here is my header class:
#ifndef NETWORK_HANDLER
#define NETWORK_HANDLER
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <SDL_net.h>
using namespace std;
class NetworkHandler
{
public:
NetworkHandler();
~NetworkHandler(){}
bool Initialize(bool pIsServer);
void CheckForMessages();
void exit();
private:
UDPpacket* m_packet;
UDPsocket m_socket;
};
#endif
And here is my Class code:
#include "NetworkHandler.h"
NetworkHandler::NetworkHandler():m_packet(new UDPpacket()),m_socket(0)
{
}
bool NetworkHandler::Initialize(bool pIsServer)
{
//Initialize SDL_net
if(SDLNet_Init() < 0)
{
std::cerr<< "SDL Net Error:"<< SDLNet_GetError() << std::endl;
return false;
}
atexit(SDLNet_Quit);
std::cout<< "SDL Net Error:"<< SDLNet_GetError() << std::endl;
m_socket = SDLNet_UDP_Open(2000);
if(!m_socket)
{
std::cerr<< "Socket Error:" <<SDLNet_GetError()<<std::endl;
return false;
}
if(!(m_packet = SDLNet_AllocPacket(512)))
{
std::cerr<<"Packet Error:"<<SDLNet_GetError()<<std::endl;
}
if(!pIsServer)
{
IPaddress ip_server;
if(SDLNet_ResolveHost(&ip_server,"10.167.193.140",2000)<0)
{
std::cerr<<"Failed to connect to Server: " << SDLNet_GetError() <<endl;
return false;
}
}
return true;
}
void NetworkHandler::CheckForMessages()
{
if(SDLNet_UDP_Recv(m_socket,m_packet))
{
std::cout<<m_packet->data<<std::endl;
}
}
void NetworkHandler::exit()
{
SDLNet_FreePacket(m_packet);
SDLNet_Quit();
}
I'm getting the following error:
Unhandled exception at 0x00a3e524 in NetworkGameDevelopmenProject.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation writing location 0xcdcdcdd1.
At this line:
m_socket = SDLNet_UDP_Open(2000);
And when I take a look at m_socket during debug, it has the following error attached to it:
m_socket CXX0076: Error:
I've already tried cleaning and rebuilding. Funnily enough if I declare m_socket and m_packet locally(inside the function) it doesn't give me any errors. Can anyone think why this is happening?
