I definitely agree that buf needs to be at least 600. From what we can see, the memset probably also needs to use 600 (the size of buf). But since we only see parts of the code, there may be a reason that only part of buf is initialized.

arunkumar_mca, it would probably take a lot of debugging to go beyond those suggestions. If you have a debugger, I suggest that you use it to trace through the code.
Dear all,
In my code,i am planning to use memset function to re-initialise an array before populating it everytime. Will using memset function be an overload to the program? (3 Replies)

Hello,
I would like to know how we can highlight/select a section of a file in vi and delete that section if we don't want to use the dd command to delete one line at at time. There is one where we don't want to delete the whole line , but up to a certain word. (2 Replies)
Hi,
memset call is failing on solaris for me. I wrote below code and that also fails. Any hints?
void *memset(void *dst, int c, size_t n)

char *d = dst;
do {
*d++ = c;
} while (--n);
}
return dst;

err_lib_error_string
ERR_error_string(3) OpenSSL ERR_error_string(3)NAME
ERR_error_string, ERR_error_string_n, ERR_lib_error_string, ERR_func_error_string, ERR_reason_error_string - obtain human-readable error
message
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/err.h>
char *ERR_error_string(unsigned long e, char *buf);
char *ERR_error_string_n(unsigned long e, char *buf, size_t len);
const char *ERR_lib_error_string(unsigned long e);
const char *ERR_func_error_string(unsigned long e);
const char *ERR_reason_error_string(unsigned long e);
DESCRIPTION
ERR_error_string() generates a human-readable string representing the error code e, and places it at buf. buf must be at least 120 bytes
long. If buf is NULL, the error string is placed in a static buffer. ERR_error_string_n() is a variant of ERR_error_string() that writes
at most len characters (including the terminating 0) and truncates the string if necessary. For ERR_error_string_n(), buf may not be NULL.
The string will have the following format:
error:[error code]:[library name]:[function name]:[reason string]
error code is an 8 digit hexadecimal number, library name, function name and reason string are ASCII text.
ERR_lib_error_string(), ERR_func_error_string() and ERR_reason_error_string() return the library name, function name and reason string
respectively.
The OpenSSL error strings should be loaded by calling ERR_load_crypto_strings(3) or, for SSL applications, SSL_load_error_strings(3) first.
If there is no text string registered for the given error code, the error string will contain the numeric code.
ERR_print_errors(3) can be used to print all error codes currently in the queue.
RETURN VALUES
ERR_error_string() returns a pointer to a static buffer containing the string if buf == NULL, buf otherwise.
ERR_lib_error_string(), ERR_func_error_string() and ERR_reason_error_string() return the strings, and NULL if none is registered for the
error code.
SEE ALSO err(3), ERR_get_error(3), ERR_load_crypto_strings(3), SSL_load_error_strings(3)ERR_print_errors(3)HISTORY
ERR_error_string() is available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL. ERR_error_string_n() was added in OpenSSL 0.9.6.
