Top Forums Programming how to avoid the segfault from Address 0x1cd00000103 out of bounds Post 302276986 by otheus on Thursday 15th of January 2009 04:48:52 AM

"out of bounds" means "invalid memory address". You avoid it by properly mallocing memory before using it.

I hate to say this, but you seem very confused about pointers. I think you need to read a very concise summary on C pointers.

In the code you provide, you are trying to assign values to the address...
Code:
node->des = 0;

You should instead be doing:
Code:
*(node->des) = 0;

And your loop should be:
Code:
while ( *(  tr->root->is_done ) ) {
... 
}

Also, root itself is a pointer. So you first need to allocate it:
Code:
tr->root = malloc(sizeof(struct node_t));
tr->root->hood = malloc(sizeof(double*));

"tr" is also a pointer, and this needs to be allocated too, but I have no idea what kind of structure it is.


Also, this structure is very unusual. I cannot imagine why you want every element to be a pointer to something!

THE SECURITYCALLBACKMODULE
The SecurityCallbackModule is a user written module that can receive events from the mod_security Erlang Webserver API module. This module only exports the function(s), event/4,5 , which are described below. EXPORTS
event(What, Port, Dir, Data) -> ignored event(What, Address, Port, Dir, Data) -> ignored Types What = atom() Port = integer() Address = {A,B,C,D} | string() <v>Dir = string() Data = [Info] Info = {Name, Value} event/4 or event/4 is called whenever an event occurs in the mod_security Erlang Webserver API module ( event/4 is called if Address is undefined and event/5 otherwise). The What argument specifies the type of event that has occurred, and should be one of the fol- lowing reasons; auth_fail (a failed user authentication), user_block (a user is being blocked from access) or user_unblock (a user is being removed from the block list). Note: Note that the user_unblock event is not triggered when a user is removed from the block list explicitly using the unblock_user function. Ericsson AB inets 5.5.2 mod_security(3erl)
