I am recently working on an application that sends large strings accross a network very often. These then need to be broken up first with '!' and then with ','. My current function (below) works fine for this when not too much data is being sent across the network but segfaults when a reasonable amount is sent across. Would anyone be so kind as to let me know if my function is flawed in some way and is causing the problem (such as memory leak etc...)
An example usage is...

It's not possible to answer that question until the innards of the string typedef are known. What are its member elements? Maybe all you need is a bigger buffer.

Hi all,
I want to split a string in awk and treat each component seperatley.
I know i can use:
split ("hi all", a, " ")
to put each delimited component into array a.
However when i want to do this with just a string of chars it does not work
split ("hi", a, "");

Let's say I have a very long string with no spaces but just words stored in $very_long_string.
$very_long_string = "aaaaaaaaaaabbbbbbbbbbbccccccccccccdddddddddddd";
I can do this to split the string into 1 character each and store them in an array:
@myArray = split(//, $very_long_string); ... (3 Replies)

buf_strdup
buffer(3) OpenSSL buffer(3)NAME
BUF_MEM_new, BUF_MEM_free, BUF_MEM_grow, BUF_strdup - simple character arrays structure
SYNOPSIS
#include <openssl/buffer.h>
BUF_MEM *BUF_MEM_new(void);
void BUF_MEM_free(BUF_MEM *a);
int BUF_MEM_grow(BUF_MEM *str, int len);
char * BUF_strdup(const char *str);
DESCRIPTION
The buffer library handles simple character arrays. Buffers are used for various purposes in the library, most notably memory BIOs.
The library uses the BUF_MEM structure defined in buffer.h:
typedef struct buf_mem_st
{
int length; /* current number of bytes */
char *data;
int max; /* size of buffer */
} BUF_MEM;
length is the current size of the buffer in bytes, max is the amount of memory allocated to the buffer. There are three functions which
handle these and one "miscellaneous" function.
BUF_MEM_new() allocates a new buffer of zero size.
BUF_MEM_free() frees up an already existing buffer. The data is zeroed before freeing up in case the buffer contains sensitive data.
BUF_MEM_grow() changes the size of an already existing buffer to len. Any data already in the buffer is preserved if it increases in size.
BUF_strdup() copies a null terminated string into a block of allocated memory and returns a pointer to the allocated block. Unlike the
standard C library strdup() this function uses OPENSSL_malloc() and so should be used in preference to the standard library strdup()
because it can be used for memory leak checking or replacing the malloc() function.
The memory allocated from BUF_strdup() should be freed up using the OPENSSL_free() function.
RETURN VALUES
BUF_MEM_new() returns the buffer or NULL on error.
BUF_MEM_free() has no return value.
BUF_MEM_grow() returns zero on error or the new size (i.e. len).
SEE ALSO bio(3)HISTORY
BUF_MEM_new(), BUF_MEM_free() and BUF_MEM_grow() are available in all versions of SSLeay and OpenSSL. BUF_strdup() was added in SSLeay 0.8.
