stray pointer 15 Years Ago by freelancelote Hi, I'm learning C++ at the moment using one of Jesse Liberty's books and got to the pointers day. They ask to code a stray pointer as an exercise and give as a solution the following code: [CODE=syntax] int main() { int *pVar; *pVar = 9; return 0; }[/CODE] Could anyone tell me why is pVar a stray pointer?

It just points to some random location in memory, which your program may, but probably does not, own. Before using a pointer you must initialize it to point somepace. For example: [code] int *pVar; int number; [color=red]pVar = &number;[/color] *pVar = 9; [/code] Re: stray pointer 15 Years Ago by freelancelote OK, thank you. Re: stray pointer 15 Years Ago by William Hemsworth Theres also another common mistake that people make, which can easily cause memory leaks, consider this example:[CODE=CPLUSPLUS]int *varPtr = new int[1000]; // Allocate 1000 int's int intArray[] = {1, 2, 3, 4, 5}; // Make an array varPtr = intArray; // Assign varPtr with the adress of intArray[/CODE] In this example, you allocated 1000 int's, but… Re: stray 302 error 12 Years Ago by Narue There's an invisible control character on line 33.

It worked Re: Stray non-printing characters in my programs 11 Years Ago by deceptikon That usually only happens when you're trying to open or copy/paste files that were written on another system or with a less than friendly text editor. Does it happen when you write code directly in Code::Blocks? Re: Stray non-printing characters in my programs 11 Years Ago by Labdabeta Yes, usually at the end of a line. It seems that when I hit enter sometimes it prints '\302' '\206' '\n' instead of just the newline.

This character isn't visible, but might still be there. [B]>>I'm on mac however so that migth explain the problem[/B] True. '\312' is hex 0xCA -- the "non-breaking space" in MacRoman encoding.
