c - 附加到字符串时C中的内存泄漏

Valgrind表示存在内存泄漏，但我不知道这是什么。我尝试将free's放在append函数中，在main的末尾释放字符串，但它仍然会抱怨。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

void append(char* string, char c)
{
    int stringlength = strlen(string);
    char* tmp = realloc(string, sizeof(char) * (stringlength + sizeof(char) + sizeof(char)));
    if(tmp == NULL)
    {
        free(tmp);
        free(string);
        printf("Error appending character\n");
        exit(1);
    }

    string = tmp;
    string[stringlength] = c;
    string[stringlength+1] = '\0';
}

int main()
{
    char* string = malloc(sizeof(char));
    string[0] = '\0';

    printf("string before appending: %s\n", string);
    append(string, 'c');
    printf("string after appending: %s\n", string);
    free(string);
    return 0;
}

最佳答案

您的主要问题不是内存泄漏而是无效访问：

Invalid read of size 1
    ...
Address 0x49d0028 is 0 bytes inside a block of size 1 free'd

和无效的免费：

Invalid free() / delete / delete[] / realloc()
...
Address 0x49d0028 is 0 bytes inside a block of size 1 free'd

因为他们有不确定的行为


当您执行char* tmp = realloc(string, sizeof(char) * (stringlength + sizeof(char) + sizeof(char)));时，该释放的字符串来自main，因此在main中对它进行printf时，您将访问一个释放的块。请注意，事实是重新分配释放的块不是强制性的
因为您不释放由realloc在分配中新分配的tmp，所以会造成内存泄漏
然后您再次释放已经由realloc释放的字符串


另外sizeof(char) * (stringlength + sizeof(char) + sizeof(char))很奇怪，您将sizeof(char)更改为定义1，可以只是stringlength + 2

你想要那个 ：

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

void append(char ** string, char c)
{
   size_t stringlength = strlen(*string);

  *string = realloc(*string, stringlength + 2);

  if (*string == NULL)
  {
     fprintf(stderr, "cannot allocate memory\n");
     exit(1);
  }

  (*string)[stringlength] = c;
  (*string)[stringlength+1] = '\0';
}

int main()
{
    char* string = malloc(1);

    string[0] = '\0';

    printf("string before appending: '%s'\n", string);
    append(&string, 'c');
    printf("string after appending: '%s'\n", string);
    free(string);
    return 0;
}

编译与执行：
