I am making a blackjack game in cocos2d-x here is the following code of the same where I am getting crash but can not understant why this is happening whats going wrong ? I tried several things thinking that crash might be because of string memory leak or something

CCSprite* _big = CCSprite::createWithSpriteFrameName(ptr);

Here is the card class card.h

  #ifndef __Card_H__
#define __Card_H__

#include "cocos2d.h"

USING_NS_CC;
class Card : public cocos2d::CCSprite
{
public:
    int mValue;
    int mSuit;
    bool mHidden;
    int mGameValue;

    Card();
    ~Card();
    void init(int value, int suit);
    void UnHide();
    void Hide();
};

#endif

Card.cpp

Deck.h which is initializing the

#ifndef __Deck_H__
#define __Deck_H__
#include "Card.h"

class Deck

public:
    static int mCardWidth;
    static int mCardHeight;

and this is deck. cpp where I am intializing the Card

USING_NS_CC_EXT;

int Deck::mCardWidth = 0;

    mCard = NULL;
    mCardCount = 52;

    if(!mCard)
    {
        CCLog("mCard initialization");

        mCard = new Card*[52];
    }
    for (int suit = 0; suit < 4; suit++) {

          }
    mCardWidth = mCard[mCardCount-1]->getContentSize().width;
    mCardHeight = mCard[mCardCount-1]->getContentSize().height;

        Shuffle();
}

      int visited[52] = {0},num_array[52] = {0};
      int count = 0;
      srand(time(0));

          int num = rand() % 52;

                    visited[num] = 1;
                    num_array[count++] = num;

      }
      count=0;
    int lastIdx = mCardCount - 1;
    int swapIdx;
    Card* swapCard;
    while (lastIdx > -1) {
      swapIdx = num_array[count++];
      swapCard = mCard[swapIdx];
      mCard[swapIdx] = mCard[lastIdx];
      mCard[lastIdx] = swapCard;
      lastIdx--;
    }


  }

The crash I get is on the line of initWithSpriteFrameName but it random crash.
I guess its memory leak please help me with the same

Can you run it through a debugger? You should try stepping through the code using a debugger.

Otherwise, try using several printf() statements and see where it fails to print.

There are a few things to note, when you write mCard = new Card*[52]; (line 26) means you're declaring an array of 52 Card*. So in your destructor, use delete[] mCard; to properly destroy the array.

Also in lines 42-44 should be, check if mCardCount < 52

void Deck::PushCard(Card* card) {
    if (mCardCount < 52)
        mCard[mCardCount++] = card;
}

I've never used the cocos2d-x library but you should check the documentation of the functions you're using to make sure if you have to delete any pointers returned, because you never deleted these pointers:

CCSprite* _big = CCSprite::createWithSpriteFrameName(ptr); (line 39)
CCSprite* _small = CCSprite::createWithSpriteFrameName(_ptr); (line 57)
CCSprite* _num = CCSprite::createWithSpriteFrameName(_ptrr); (line 105)
