I see code like ...

I see code like
char *p = malloc(strlen(s) + 1);
strcpy(p, s);

Shouldn't that be malloc((strlen(s) + 1) * sizeof(char))?

✍: Guest

It's never necessary to multiply by sizeof(char), since sizeof(char) is, by definition, exactly 1. (On the other hand, multiplying by sizeof(char) doesn't hurt, and in some circumstances may help by introducing a size_t into the expression;

In a call to malloc, what does an error like
In a call to malloc, what does an error like ``Cannot convert `void *' to `int *''' mean? It means you're using a C++ compiler instead of a C compiler. 2016-06-21, 2054👍, 0💬

I im trying to declare a pointer and allocate some space for it
I'm trying to declare a pointer and allocate some space for it, but it's not working. What's wrong with this code? char *p; *p = malloc(10); The pointer you declared is p, not *p. When you're manipulating the pointer itself (for example when you're setting it to make it point somewhere), you just us... 2016-06-10, 1900👍, 0💬

I wrote a little wrapper around malloc, but it doesn't work: #include lt;stdio.h> #include lt;stdlib.h> mymalloc(void *retp, size_t size) { retp = malloc(size); if(retp == NULL) { fprintf(stderr, "out of memory\n"); exit(EXIT_FAILURE); } } Are you sure the function initialized what you thought it di... 2016-06-10, 1757👍, 0💬

How can I dynamically allocate arrays?
How can I dynamically allocate arrays? The equivalence between arrays and pointers allows a pointer to malloc'ed memory to simulate an array quite effectively. After executing #include <stdlib.h> int *dynarray; dynarray = malloc(10 * sizeof(int)); (and if the call to malloc succeeds), you can... 2016-04-23, 1719👍, 0💬

How can I shut off the warning: possible pointer alignment problem ...
How can I shut off the ``warning: possible pointer alignment problem'' message which lint gives me for each call to malloc? A modern lint shouldn't be complaining about this. Once upon a time, lint did not and could not know that malloc ``returns a pointer to space suitably aligned for storage of an... 2016-06-03, 1575👍, 0💬
