返回值是指针的情况

第一种：传出指向静态内存或者已经分配动态内存的指针

#cat  get_a_day.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>

const char *msg[] = {
    "Sunday","Monday","Tuesday","Wednesday","Thursday","Friday","Saturday"
};

char *get_a_day(int idx){
    static char buf[20];
    strcpy(buf,msg[idx]);
    return buf;
}

int main(void){
    printf("%s %s\n",get_a_day(1),get_a_day(0));
    return 0;
}

第二种: 在函数中分配动态内存并且传出指向这块内存的指针

#cat malloc_p.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

typedef struct{
    int number;
    char *msg;
} unit_t;

unit_t *alloc_unit(void){
    unit_t *p = malloc(sizeof(unit_t));
    if(p == NULL){
        printf("out of memory");
        exit(1);
    }

    p->number=1;
    p->msg=malloc(20);
    strcpy(p->msg,"hello muahao");
    return p;
}

void free_unit(unit_t *p){
    free(p->msg);
    free(p);
}

int main(void){
    unit_t *p = alloc_unit();
    printf("number:%d\nmsg:%s\n",p->number,p->msg);
    free_unit(p);
    p=NULL;
    return 0;
}
