solved: glibc detection corruption using a fork in popen
Hi,
I am having a hell of a time getting this to work. So basically, I have opened a popen to run a program that is going to prompt an action to occur half way through, when it gets to this I need to create a separate process and do some stuff, then return to the original process. This works fine until I re-enter the parent process then I get "glibc detected *** double free or corruption.
Here is the skeleton code:
I have been working on this error of most of a day now. Anybody have any theories?
Thankz

Actually I figured it out. I was closing fp2 twice. Now it works fine

Reason: code tags, please...
Currently I test a shared library vendor provided in linux , the following is the simple source :
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
extern int test1();
extern int test2();
int main()
{
cout << "hello world" << endl ;
return 0 ;
cout << "Test 1" << endl;

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);

Good evening everyone. I have my finals and I'm facing a problem:
I have a for cycle that is supposed to fork 2 children but somehow it forks only the first one.
What am I doing wrong ?

there seems not to be error in this segment. In some computers, it can work well. But in others, it will give a failure.
why it ocurrs and how to deal with it?

if( *ver == NULL ) {
*ver = (vertex *) malloc(sizeof(vertex)); //this line
