C++ :: Uninitialized Variables In Structure
Aug 7, 2013
I have a structure
Code: struct time{
char hours;
char minutes;
char seconds;
char dummy;
};
I have kept dummy as the data to be aligned.I will update hours, minutes, and seconds , but will not use dummy in any case.
If I don't initialize 'dummy' does it make any errors ?
Do I need to initialize hours, minutes, seconds as well before I use the structure ?
If so is there any particular reason ?

I have an array of structure that takes family information (name, age, and state) after it takes the users input it prints back all of the information that was input and then prints the family members that just live in Texas. After that I am trying to implement a function to average out the ages of all family members but I cant seem to get it right, whenever it gets to that part of the program it just outputs 0. I also tried adding an & sign prior to FAMILY[i].age and got an error of int from ptr with no cast.
Also I realize that the code only shows adding of the family members ages which is fine for now as I am concentrated on getting that to work in the first place.
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
//Global Variables
int i=0, a=0, sum=0;

I have a project for class where I have to create a structure and get user input for 3 structure variable arrays of 10. I am trying to figure out how I can use the same function to fill my different section of variables.
My Structure is an employee file of ID number, name, hours, payrate, and then gross pay. I have to create a function for each input function. I am confused on how to pass the structure variable so that I do not have to write 3 functions for each input. I would like to be able to get all the info for the first structure variable and then recall the same 5 functions for the next before moving along. I hope that I have been able to make this clear. Here is my code:
#include<iostream>
#include<iomanip>
#include<cctype>
#include<string>
#include<cstring>
using namespace std;
struct PayPeeps_CL//Payroll Structure {
[Code] .....

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
struct WeatherStats {
double total_rainfall;
int high_temp;
int low_temp;
int avg_temp;
[Code] ....
When I run this program I am able to input data for the three months but after inputting everything I am prompted with a run time error that states: Run time check failure#3: The variable 'temp' is being used without being initialized. I've underlined the statement that the compiler says is causing this error, yet there is no variable 'temp' in that statement.
Computer are very specific right? So in the problem statement total_yearly_temp = total_yearly_temp + temp.avg_temp; there is a variable called total_yearly_temp and one called temp.avg_temp, but there are none called temp. It can't be complaining about the WeatherStats variable I defined in the first line of the function called temp because I did the exact same thing in the previous function and there are no errors concerning that.

I keep getting the "Uninitialized Local Variable" error. But for my code it's says it's the variable 'pay' in my Manager Function. This is the only error that is popping up.
I've tried setting pay to 0 but when I do, I get a bunch of external errors. I've also tried assigning pay to WeeklySalary like this:
double pay = WeeklySalary;
//Calculating pay for a company
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
//Function prototypes
double managerFunction();
double hourlyWorkerFunction();
double commissionWorkerFunction();

I am getting this message from Valgrind, As far as I can see what it points to is initialized. The memory it is referring to is freed in unload and I was not getting this error until after I added the check function. Valgrind was happy. Here is the code and the error message from Valgrind. I am trying to create a spell checker for an assignment for a online class I am taking. I just want to get this table working correctly before I add it to the rest of the program. The code seems to run fine but I have come to see that dos not mean much in C.
#include "hashTable.h"
#include <stdbool.h>
table_node hash_table[TABLE_LENGTH];
bool loaded = true;
//assigning letters a-z to table nodes for buckets
void key_hash_t( )

I have airport class which should navigate planes, in its list to runways, with method move, theres a method prepare which changes the direction of flight to all planes, always before move is called, move just increments decrement x and y of plane in its list. But after calling two times in row airport->move(), I get screwed and I really dont know wheres the problem. Have I badly initiazed something? Iterator gets invalidated.
Valgrind Stacktrace
Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)
==26207== at 0x409601: plane::move() (in /home/xnovak11/Downloads/airport/main)
==26207== by 0x401FBD: airport::move() (in /home/xnovak11/Downloads/airport/main)
==26207== by 0x405FE1: io::start(std::istream&, std:stream&, std:stream&) (in /home/xnovak11/Downloads/airport/main)
This is how I add planes into list in airport
Code:
list<plane*> planes;
list<plane*>::const_iterator planeIterator;
list<plane*>::iterator planeIteratorMoj;
bool airport::addPlane(const plane& p) {
[Code] .....
This is the method where it fails. When I call it once, no problem, after second call I get instead of normal number in cout<<after move<< s1 i get like 8795456 ....
Code:
void airport::move() {
for(planeIteratorMoj = planes.begin(); planeIteratorMoj!= planes.end(); planeIteratorMoj++) {
plane * p1 = (*planeIteratorMoj);
int s,w;
p1->getPosition(s,w);

I had a flawed function like this:
Code:
fn(){
char c;
if (runFirstTime){
#ifdef VC
c='';
#else
c='/';
#endif
}
... // c is used in the rest of the function to construct some pathnames
}
The problem is that the value of c is not defined the 2nd time the function is called (and subsequently). It somehow worked fine under CygWin compiled with gcc. So I didn't spot the flaw until it ran incorrectly under Windows complied with VC++ 2010. Then I found the error and changed the code to something like
Code:
fn(){
#ifdef VC
const char c='';
#else
const char c='/';
#endif
...
}
So now it works correctly under Windows. Then I re-compiled the new code with gcc and to my surprise gcc produced exactly the same binary! How can this be? Does the gcc compiler see my flaw and fix it for me somehow?

I discovered valgrind and started using it for my c code. But I get following error message at almost every malloc position, :
==19505== 40 errors in context 10 of 12: ==19505== Use of uninitialised value of size 8 ==19505== at 0x10000416E: my_method (main.c:662) ==19505== by 0x10000159E: main (main.c:182) ==19505== Uninitialised value was created by a heap allocation ==19505== at 0x47F1: malloc (vg_replace_malloc.c:302) ==19505== by 0x100001C21: my_method (main.c:333) ==19505== by 0x10000159E: main (main.c:182)
and I really don't understand what it means. I already googled it but I didn't find out what is my mistake.SO here i just put one example:
Code:
int main(int argc, char** argv) {
//i declare my variables at this position
Uint *used, *forbidden_jumps, *forbidden_jumpsV,
*forbidden_jump;
/*now i want to allocate one of them, this is my line 333 from the error message*/
//a_num is set during the execution of the program,
ALLOC(used, Uint, a_num);
}
[code].....
Is there any support page for the output of valgrind? I found it on the homepage.

Why doesn't this compile?
struct hi(){
void other();
}histructure;
void hi::other(){
std::cout << "Hi!" << std::endl;
[Code] ....
Makes no sense the structure is written before the structure member function is called so why is there compile errors ??...

I'm trying to use a structure in union in the following format:
Code:
union data
{
unsigned char All[10] ;
struct data_pkt
{
unsigned char ack;
unsigned short status;
unsigned short data_length;
unsigned char Data[5];
}format;
}adb; adb.
All has 10 bytes which is equivalent to the structure bytes. ie 6 bytes if unsigned char and 2 short i.e 4 bytes. Thus total 10 bytes is given to adb.All. When I print the struct size I get 12 bytes. This creates problem in obtaining data in union. According to the program:
adb.format.ack should have the address of adb.All[0]
adb.format.status should have the address of adb.All[1]
adb.format.data_length should have the address of adb.All[3]
adb.format.Data[0] should have the address of adb.All[5]
But in actual case this is how memory is allocated:
adb.format.ack assigned to the address of adb.All[0]
adb.format.status assigned to the address of adb.All[2]
adb.format.data_length assigned to the address of adb.All[4]
adb.format.Data[0] assigned to the address of adb.All[6]
Why this is happening? How can I solve this?

i'd like to ask if it's possible to fill every array in structure to zero. (Without using too much cycles)Something like this (I know that it doesn't work):
Code:
typedef struct {
char name[30], sname[30], adress[30], day, month; int year; char number[9], email[30];
} person;
void create_list(person z[100])
}

I'm trying to create a structure for a buffer that I can use in 2 different code modules. I've defined the structure in the main.h file
typedef struct
{
uint8_t frame[MRFI_MAX_FRAME_SIZE];
uint8_t rxMetrics[MRFI_RX_METRICS_SIZE];
} receiveBuffer_t; //SS; packetBuffer length is 24 Bytes, 20 for data packet, 1 for length, for rxMetrics, 1 for TxCount
Then set it up in main.c
static receiveBuffer_t XDATA receive_buf[8]; //SS; Store up to 16 received packets for debug
This works great in main but I want to also use this structure in another module. In other.c I've included main.h and am trying to use it as follows
extern receiveBuffer_t receive_buf[8]; // Receive buffer
for (i=0; i<PACKET_LENGTH+1; i++)
receive_buf[rec_head_ptr].frame[i] = mrfiIncomingPacket.frame[i];
I get the following error when I compile.
Error[e46]: Undefined external "receive_buf" referred in mrfi ( C:FlowTimerDebugObjmrfi.r51 )

I currently have a structure that contains strings.
What I would like to do is randomize these strings so that for example the user picks an input, one of these strings will display.
Is it possible to do with the rand function or do I have to go about creating my own functing, assigning values to these strings somehow etc. etc.
I tried reading up on it but as far as I could realize you could only use rand () with numbers, set values etc.
Code:
struct sample_a
{
string mot1 = "heej";
string mot2 = "haj";
};

I'm trying to write a simple program that extract the FAT information from a FAT32 virtual Hard Disk.I have the following structures regarding the FAT format:
Code:
//BOOT RECORD
typedef struct NF_BOOT_RECORD
{
unsigned char BS_jumpBoot[3]; //EB 58 90 = JUMP 58 NOP (Jumps to boot code). Also E9 is acceptable.
unsigned char BS_OEMName[8]; //Either MSWIN4.1 or mkdosfs
unsigned short BS_BytesPerSec; //Little endian. The size of a sector. 128,256,512,1024...
unsigned char BS_SecPerClus; //The number of sectors per cluster (1 CLUSTER = BPS*SPC BYTES)
unsigned short BS_RsvdSecCnt; //The boot sectors (this) are included. That makes at least 1.
}
[code]...
Everything seems to work fine. Mostly. The only problem, is that the program gives me the following output:BS_NumFATs shouldn't be 0. In fact, I've checked inside the structure memory, and the information seems correct. BS_NumFATs is 0x02, not 0x00 (It's the byte at offset 0x10, starting at 0x00).
I've checked the order of the structure fields, and their types, comparing them to the FAT specification given by Microsoft (File fatgen103.pdf), and it seems fine, unless I'm missing something. So I don't know why it gives 0 instead of 2, if I'm missing something.It's a Win32 program compiled with GCC version 4.4.0

Ok, so this assignment is to create a structure that allows input for up to 6 employees that then makes a 6 structure array showing Employee ID, Employee Last Name, Employee Pay Rate, Employee Hours Worked, Employee Pay, and Total Gross Pay for All Employees.
I don't have a printf yet for total gross, but right now I am just trying to tackle the input. Obviously I am not doing it right because although gcc complier is not giving errors the program is not ending when I type 'q' (sentinel issue) or when I reach 6 employees. It just continues input forever. Here is my code so far:
Code:
//Cameron Taylor
#include <stdio.h>
#define MAXARRAY 6
struct Record{
int idnum;
char lname[20];
double pay_rate;

Code:
typedef struct gg{
int id;
int value;
}

How can i skip remaining loop iterations when it get that index and will go back to loop again for getting next element index?
