This is the constructor and the function it calls:

palette::palette(char *file){
  LoadPal(file);
}

bool palette::LoadPal(char *file){
  uchar sLength = strlen(file);
  char ext[4];
  strcpy(ext, (file + sLength - 4));
  strupr(ext);
  if (strcmp(ext, ".PAL") == 0){
    return LoadPALpal(file);
  }else if (strcmp(ext, ".PCX") == 0){
    return LoadPCXpal(file);
  }else if (strcmp(ext, ".BMP") == 0){
    return LoadBMPpal(file);
  }else{
    return false;
  }
}

I'm sure that the problem is located in the constructor, since when I use
the default constructor, it all works well...
