My CPP program gets abruptly terminated.....
I think this happens because by some part of the program itself, the TC.exe gets overwritten and thats why it gets terminated.....
Can any one help me out????

I'm more inclined to assume that your code is broken. Post a complete program that crashes and we'll be able to help you.

Why, when, in which situation and/or IDE you run your application?
Is it a console application or a GUI application using MFC?
Please clarify your question or provide some code.

That's nice, now could you tell us exactly what sequence of actions on the part of the user cause the program to abruptly terminate?

No way. You didn't use CODE tags which are mentioned
1) In The Rules you read when you signed up
2) In the post aptly titled Read Me: Read This Before Posting
3) In the post about BBCode Tags
4) On the background of the input box you posted that unreadable code.

Oooooopppppppppsssssssssss...........
Sorry sir....
Actually i m really new at this thing...
Gimme some time to adjust my self in the forum enviornment......
Thank you for appreaciating....
Now you run the programme in TC and i have provided one option to get exit from the menu to the editor window as no user is goin to use it..... But still you use it for me :-).
When you will chose the Exit option, it will bring you out of TC... Try it sir...
I made that for jz assignment purpose but the problem is reallly cumbersome so i asked you all..
Narue 5,707 Bad Cop Team Colleague
>When you will chose the Exit option, it will bring you out of TC...
I don't understand. Your problem is that the program "abruptly terminates", yes? And the steps to reproduce the problem are to choose the exit option from the menu? If the exit option terminates the program, that sounds like the correct and intended behavior to me.

line 40: You are attempting to use an uninitialized pointer as the input buffer to getline(). That will most certainly cause your program to scribble all over hell and back and is most likely one of the causes of the behavior you are reporting. On line 38 replace char *a; with this: char a[100]; Then you will have to rework the loop starting at line 43 to index into the array a instead of incrementing the pointer.
function ltrim(). you created a memory leak by moving the pointer string. Can't do that because you will never successfully delete it after doing that. What you need to do is locate the first non-white-space (using isspace() ) and then shift all the characters left to overwrite all those spaces and tabs.
I suspect there may be other similar problems in your code, but I don't have time to look for them.
sahil_itprof 0 Newbie Poster
Sir I have tried that too....
But believe me its not so....
and I am not talking only abt this programme...
It is also the same case in one another programme....
Narue, you are right that the prog should get terminated when we choose Exit option, but as i m not a professional , i m not going to provide EXE file of this prog to any one... But as Practice Purpose, what i need is that the EXIT OPTION should draw me to the editor window instead of closing the batch job as i may further require it...
Sir I am very much confused.... Even our faculty is saying that there is no solution for such problem but how it can be possible... There must be any good reason behind that... Try to find that and please give me necessary suggesstions to enhance my programming skill....:S

Sir plz try to solve my problem as soon as possible....
Getting very confused sir......
