I am writing a UNIX pasteclone. However, I continue to receive “meet breakpoint” messages, but V.S. won't tell me in which line this happened.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#define INITALLOC 16
#define STEP 8
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
if (horzmerge(argc - 1, argv + 1) == 0) {
perror("horzmerge");
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
getchar();
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
int horzmerge(int nfiles, const char **filenames)
{
FILE **files;
char *line;
int i;
if ((files = malloc(nfiles * sizeof (FILE *))) == NULL)
return 0;
for (i = 0; i < nfiles; ++i)
if ((files[i] = fopen(filenames[i], "r")) == NULL)
return 0;
do {
for (i = 0; i < nfiles; ++i) {
if (getline(files[i], &line) == 0)
return 0;
fprintf(stdout, "%s", line);
free(line);
}
putchar('\n');
} while (!feof(files[0]));
for (i = 0; i < nfiles; ++i)
fclose(files[i]);
free(files);
return 1;
}
int getline(FILE *fp, char **dynline)
{
size_t nalloced = INITALLOC;
int c, i;
if ((*dynline = calloc(INITALLOC, sizeof(char))) == NULL)
return 0;
for (i = 0; (c = getc(fp)) != EOF && c != '\n'; ++i) {
if (i == nalloced)
if ((*dynline = realloc(*dynline, nalloced += STEP)) == NULL)
return 0;
(*dynline)[i] = c;
}
(*dynline)[i] = '\0';
if (c == EOF)
return EOF;
return i;
}
I set breakpoints and saw that this is a statement free(line)in horzmerge. But sometimes the program works fine. This is sometimes not the case. Sometimes I get a bunch of damaged ones in getline. I have been working on this code for a week but cannot find any errors.
