C++ :: Memory Corruption In Clutter Gui App?

Mar 31, 2012

I wrote most of a gui using clutter, using tons of global variables.

Clutter has a function which you use to connect an event or action like a mouse click to a function, and lets you pass one user data variable to it.

I wanted to eliminate globals. So I put everything in a struc to pass to each function, and after a few hours of doing all of this, I thought I almost got it working, but it's not the case.

I have this in the main

Code:
for (int i=0; i < 8; ++i )
clutter_actor_add_action(MV_CL_GUI.Actor_Wav[i], MV_CL_GUI.Wav_Action[i]);

which causes an error attempted to read or write protected memory.

When I comment that line out, the gui at least comes up, but as soon as a mouse event launches a function, the program crashes and gives a Debug Assertion Failed...click retry.

Then it points to a line in dbgdel.cpp

Code:
/* get a pointer to memory block header */
pHead = pHdr(pUserData);
/* verify block type */
_ASSERTE(_BLOCK_TYPE_IS_VALID(pHead->nBlockUse));

Here is what my struct looks like.

Code:
struct Clutter_GUI {
string ProjectName;
ClutterActor *Actor_Enter_Source_Bar;
ClutterLayoutManager *Actor_Source_Directories_Box_Layout;
int Source_Row_Selected;
ClutterAction *Action_Track_Row_Rect[12];

[code]....

Except it has about 5 times as many variables in it. And I am accessing all of the members just using object dot member syntax.

here is an example of the functions used to connect functions to events or actions.

Code:
g_signal_connect ( MV_CL_GUI.Action_Root_Row_Rect[1], "clicked", G_CALLBACK (Root_Row_1_Clicked), &MV_CL_GUI);

The last parameter is the struct I am passing to the function.and my functions look like this.

Code:
void Root_Row_1_Clicked (Clutter_GUI_Object MV_CL_GUI) {...}

But when I launch a function not with g_signal_connect, I don't use the &,

Code:
play(MV_CL_GUI)

C++ :: Correct Values Passed To The Pointers - Memory Corruption

Apr 26, 2012

My project is say that it has memory leaks. When I view it in the debugger, it shows the correct values being passed to the pointers.

Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
bool ConfigGetEntry( char *pcFile, char *pcNameMust, char* &pcResult ) {
char pcBuffer[ 512 ];

[Code] ....

Its saying that i have memory corrupting at..

Code:
if ( !ConfigGetEntry( pcFile, pcName, pcRet ) ) return _strdup( pcDefault );

Also is it normal to have a bad pointer then point data into it to then clear that of the bad pointer. To have valid data now in that pointer.

C++ :: Data Corruption In Vector

May 2, 2013

I have this code that is supposed to store numbers in one vector and another vector stores pointers to the values in the first vector:

#include <iostream>
#include <algorithm>
#include <sstream>
#include <cstring>
#include <vector>
#include <cstdio>

[Code] ....

However, when I print out the values stored by the pointer vector, the first 2 values are not the same as what the input was. I have tried it with 4 - 10 values and always, the first 2 are not the same as the input but the rest are. I tried printing out the values as they are stored in the vector in the first for-loop and it seems to contain them all, but after that first for-loop, when I try to print *station.front(), it is now changed to something else.

input:
4
1231 234354 4544343 121312

output:
34144320 0 4544343 121312

input:
6
123 2435 353 12221 356567 4544452

output:
21704768 0 353 12221 356567 4544452

Visual C++ :: MFC CRecordset Heap Corruption Detected At Close

Oct 28, 2013

I recently upgraded my operating system from Windows XP to Windows 7 SP1 64 bit. We are using Visual Studio 2008 Professional Edition and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0 - 64bit Production.

When I try to execute this code I am getting the below exceptions

HTML Code:
try {
CDatabase *pDatabase = CDatabaseConnection::getDatabaseConnectionProcessLog();
ORSProcessLog rsProcessLog(pDatabase);

[Code] .....

Where rsProcessLog is the CRecordset object using a successfully connected database pointer pDatabase

In 32- bit Debug version I get a message box at rsProcessLog.Close(); with the below text Debug Error

Program: ......Test.exe

HEAP CORRUPTION DETECTED: after Normal block (#506) at 0x0087F628. CRT detected that the application wrote to memory after end of heap buffer.

Memory allocated at f:ddvctoolsvc7libsshipatlmfcsrcmfcdbcore.cpp(2626)

(Please Retry to debug the application)

In 32- bit Release version I get a message box at rsProcessLog.Close(); with the below text Windows has triggered a breakpoint in Test.exe

This may be due to a corruption of the heap, which indicates a bug in Test.exe or any of the DLLS it has loaded.

This may also be due to the user pressing F12 while Test.exe has focus.

The output window may have more diagnostic information.

The above code was a working code in Windows XP with the rest of the env remaining the same and it continues to run in Windows XP but not in Windows 7.

Visual C++ :: Open QuickTime VR Image Into MFC Dialog - Heap Corruption?

May 17, 2013

I need to write a piece of code that opens a QuickTime VR image into an MFC Dialog. I drew a Dialog and put an "Apple QuickTime Control 2.0" into it. Then I created a Control variable in my Dialog class, called QtControl. In the OnInitDialog I set the file to open, calling the put_FileName of the control.

I tested it by:

- opening a dialog --> worked
- closing it --> worked
- opening again --> crashed. The error was:

"Windows has triggered a breakpoint in TestOcx.exe.

This may be due to a corruption of the heap, which indicates a bug in TestOcx.exe or any of the DLLs it has loaded.

This may also be due to the user pressing F12 while TestOcx.exe has focus.

The output window may have more diagnostic information."

I tried many things and googled a lot, but the only way that I found to avoid this crash was hardcoding a valid URL in the QtControl resources at compile time. In other words, if I write a valid absolute path to a .mov into the URL property of the QtControl from Visual Studio and compile it, then it works. Obviously, I can't do this because the absolute Path is valid only on my PC.

C++ :: Memory And Int Not Being Declared

Mar 19, 2013

I had a quick question regarding a program I am trying to complete. I have the basics worked out, and everything seems to be done, but I am running into two issues.

1= The program keeps telling me "Run-Time Check Failure #3 - The variable 'order' is being used without being initialized."
and
2= When I reach my output screen I receive "Unhandled exception at 0x7751c41f in CISC 192 Project 3.exe: Microsoft C++ exception: std:Out_of_range at memory location 0x002eefb8.."

While the first one isn't necessarily a deal breaker the second one definitely is.

Code:
// Bookstore Project 3.cpp : Defines the entry point for the console application.
// Declarations
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string>
#include <istream>

C++ :: GMP Library Memory

May 11, 2013

I'm trying out the gmp library by building a simple pi calculation program (original, I know!). On a million digits of Pi I've debugged the program and seem to have about a megabyte too much of memory at the end of the program (I start with around 250k before any allocation begins and end at around 1200).

int main(int argc, char *argv[]) {
//set a//
int digitsofpi =1000000;
mpf_set_default_prec(log2(10) *digitsofpi );

mpf_t a;
mpf_init (a);
mpf_set_ui (a,1);

C++ :: How Much Memory Allocated

Nov 6, 2014

We have a proprietary third-party library that we make calls into via an API. Through a series of API calls, this library manipulates specific sets of data. Prior to making these calls, there are some API calls that are necessary in order to initialize the library in preparation for a specific set of data. One of the calls tells the library to allocate some memory and then perform whatever initialization is required. This particular API call returns a pointer to char (char*) that is later used as an argument for a few other API calls. My question is... Is there a way, or maybe some kind of trick, to tell exactly how much memory was allocated? It doesn't matter whether or not the solution (if there is one) is C++ related, or some series of OS commands. FYI: We're running on Redhat Linux 6.2 and using GNU C++ 4.4.6.

C :: Manipulating Data In Memory

Jan 31, 2015

So, it seems I have a bug in my code:

Code:

char *mem = malloc(9), *bottom = malloc(3), *in = "abc";
int position = 2, i;
mem = "onetwo";
printf("OLD mem = %s
", mem);

[Code]....

What I'm trying to do is insert "abc" in the 3rd position of "onetwo". Results would be "oneabctwo", but all I get is crashing.

C :: Dynamic Memory Allocation

Jul 14, 2013

I have declared a global variable as pointer. The program performs certain number of iterations. After every iteration, the size of memory required for the pointer changes and this pointer variable is to be accessed by different functions. Now, here is my doubt:If I allocate the memory for this global variable in a function, will the contents of the memory be lost once I exit that function. In my opinion, it should not be the case as the dynamic memory allocation takes place in "heap" and should not be affected by the call of functions.

C++ :: How To Allocate Memory When It Comes To Using Templates

Oct 25, 2013

I'm currently learning templates -- & my logic is in a knot with what I am trying to do which is the following:

-Create a function name load
-Accepts a filename (the filename is a text file of integers)
-Open the file
-Create an array(dynamically allocating an array) filling it with the elements read in from the file & returns the array(so that the return type of the array is a pointer to the element type of the array).

//Header file:
#ifndef BUBBLE_SORT_H
#define BUBBLE_SORT_H
#include <iostream>
template <typename T>
void load(std::string filename, T *&arr, int *size);

[code].....

C++ :: Returning Memory Location Of The Value

PlayerMenu *newPM = new PlayerMenu;
File *file = new File;
// Menu for loading, creating or exiting the game
choice = newPM->menuChoices();

PlayerMenu.cpp

I am not sure how to deference the value so I can get at the value instead of the memory location.

C++ :: Templates And Memory Occupancy

Let us consider the following two classes:

class case1

int n;
float x;

[code]....

Now, let's suppose that I instantiate an array of 100 elements of each class:

case1 c1[100];
case2<20> c2[100];

My question is this: will c2 occupy roughly half of the memory than c1?will the value c1.n be allocated 100 times, while the value c1.n wil be allocated only once?

C++ :: Freeing Memory Without Destructing

Sep 12, 2013

Say we have this crude memory pool that is on the heap:

char* mpool = (char*)malloc(sizeof(char) * 4096);

And we used placement new to construct a couple objects in place:

char* next = mpool;
void* fooptr = new (next) FOO();
next += sizeof(FOO);
void* bazptr = new (next) Baz();
next += sizeof(Baz);

And at the end, let's say the memory is freed without having called the object destructors:

free(mpool);

What exactly happens? I haven't found any page that states what happens in this situation. Does it cause undefined behavior?
