hi,
I have made a small C program that make use of malloc and free for processing bitmap images. when i try to run the program, I am getting a error something like
*** glibc detected *** free(): invalid next size (normal): 0x0000000000503e70 ***
I am not sure of which free() is causing this... (1 Reply)
when i try to use the class i wrote, i either get this:
*** glibc detected *** double free or corruption: 0x40236ff4 ***
and the proccess exits with an error code of 0;
or it segfaults. could someone look at my header file (with imp.) to give me some insight as to why its not working?

Hi All,
My latest assignment (practice not coursework!) is to write prototype interactive exam/test console application. I've used structs to store the question information (not sure if this was the best way to do it?) and I have the following code that outputs each question and it's possible... (0 Replies)
Hi, i'm trying to copy a struct into a binary file using the unix instruction write, so i declare and fill the struct "superbloque" in one function "initSB" and then i pass the pointer to another function called bwrite (for block write) which calls write. The problem is that i call the function... (2 Replies)
In a well-known book on the C language, there is an example of an efficient method for using a struct member as an argument to a function. (I'm a C noob, but I believe the correct terminology might be: use call-by-reference instead of call-by-value.) The function is printf.
Anyway, here's a... (5 Replies)
Hi guys, I'm trying to understand pointers in C and made a simple example and I've problems with It.
Can someone help?

int f1(char **str_);
int main(int argc, char **argv)

I am facing a problem of memory corruption. The loop runs for the first time but does not go through the second time. What could be the problem?
for(int z=0;z<2;z++)
{
fp=fopen("poly.dat","r");
/*do something which reads this file into a 2D array*/
fclose(fp);

Currently I test a shared library vendor provided in linux , the following is the simple source :

return 0 ;
cout << "Test 1" << endl;

nexttowardf
NEXTAFTER(3) libc math functions NEXTAFTER(3)NAME
nextafter, nexttoward - floating point number manipulation
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double nextafter(double x, double y);
float nextafterf(float x, float y);
long double nextafterl(long double x, long double y);
double nexttoward(double x, long double y);
float nexttowardf(float x, long double y);
long double nexttowardl(long double x, long double y);
DESCRIPTION
The nextafter() functions return the next representable neighbor of x in the direction towards y. The size of the step between x and the
result depends on the type of the result. If x = y the function simply returns y. If either value is NaN, then NaN is returned. Other-
wise a value corresponding to the value of the least significant bit in the mantissa is added or subtracted, depending on the direction.
The nexttoward() functions do the same as the nextafter() functions, except that they have a long double second argument.
These functions will signal overflow or underflow if the result goes outside of the range of normalized numbers.
CONFORMING TO
C99. This function is defined in IEC 559 (and the appendix with recommended functions in IEEE 754/IEEE 854).
