valgrind在报这个错误的时候程序未必有bug,如下例:
代码
//
test.cpp
#include < iostream >
using namespace std;
bool ptr( char * testptr)
{
int i = 0 ;
if (i == 0 ){
memcpy(testptr, " Hello " , 5 );
return true ;
}
return false ;
}
int main( int argc, const char * argv[])
{
char * p = new char [ 10 ];
if (ptr(p)){
printf( " %s\n " ,p);
}
delete [] p;
return 0 ;
}
#include < iostream >
using namespace std;
bool ptr( char * testptr)
{
int i = 0 ;
if (i == 0 ){
memcpy(testptr, " Hello " , 5 );
return true ;
}
return false ;
}
int main( int argc, const char * argv[])
{
char * p = new char [ 10 ];
if (ptr(p)){
printf( " %s\n " ,p);
}
delete [] p;
return 0 ;
}
执行:
g++ test.cpp -Wall
valgrind --tool=memcheck --leak-check=full --show-reachable=yes ./a.out
就会报下面的错:
==8472==
==8472== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)

因此在遇到这种错误的时候需要仔细分析。
