Hello All:
I'm trying to make a string buffer for my APIs. For example:
void test(char * str){
sprintf(str,"in ner test\n");
}
int main(void){
int i = -5;
char *str=(char*)mal loc(sizeof(char )*100);
sprintf(str,"\n umber is %d\n",i);
test(str);
printf("STR IS %s\n",str);
return 0;
I want the char array str contains "\nnumber is -5\ninner test\n", but
the result is "\ninner test\n". I know the str means that the beginning
pointer of the cahr array. So, as I invoke the test function, the
sprintf of teh test function write down the characters from the
beginning of the str.
How to slove this problem?
Thank you!

Not sure what you mean by "String Buffer", but if this is a specific
problem, you can just use strcat in "temp" function.
void test(char * str)
{
strcat(str," inner test\n");
}

Don't cast the return value of malloc and check out the strcat
function.

Better, check out the (non-standard) strlcpy and strlcat
functions. You can find an implementation in pure portable C, with
references to the original proposals, etc., at:

Hiho,
here my Newbie question (Win32 GUI):
I'm reading a file in binary mode to a char* named buffer. I used
malloc(filesize) to make the needed space avaiable. The filedata in the
buffer seems to be ok..I can write the variable buffer back to a file
and the contents is ok. So I think until here all goes fine...
But now I want write the buffer contents to a Memo-Box for displaying.

// Get the next line in the file

hi
i need a fast way to do lots of conversion that between
string and numerical value(integer, float, double...), and
boost::lexical_cast is useless, because it runs for a long time,
(about 60 times slower than corresponding C functions)
it's too expensive for my program.
is there any way( library?) to do this fast and safely,
please ?

How do I print a pointer address into a string buffer and then read it
back on a 64 bit machine ?
Compulsion is to use string (char * buffer) only.
printing with %d does not capture the full 64-bits of the pointer.
does %l exist in both printf and scanf for this purpose ?

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
