Core dumping at push_back for a vector (On Linux and HP)

Ganesh Gella

Hi All,

I am using g++ on Linux, and my code has lot of vectors each stores a
particualr type of structure. (Structure internally had some vectors).

When I am trying to push_back an element to a one of the vectors in
the parent strutcure, it always core dumps on Linux and HP. On Solaris
the same code is working fine without any problem.

My code is actually an API, and this problem is seen only by few
callers and not by everybody on linux/HP.

Here is the stack trace of core dump, can some of you help me out
here..

#6 is the place where I am using push_back.

I tried using stlport instead of g++'s STL but no use it core dumps
at the same place always.

Your help is highly appreciated in this regard.

Thanks
Ganesh.

Don't post this OS- and compiler-specific rubbish. Post code.

I can't see any "place". Neither can I see any "particular
structure". Post code.

Then post code not meaningless crap.

Your probably using vector incorrectly, we will never know until we see some
_complete_ _compilable_ code that illustrates the problem.

Okay, here is the code I am using

for (pImg=filteredL ist.begin(); pImg != filteredList.en d(); ++pImg)
{
ImageData idata;
FRAG_vec::itera tor pFrag;
for (pFrag=(pImg->frags).begin() ; pFrag != (pImg->frags).end() ; ++pF
rag)
{
idata.imageId = pImg->backupid;
idata.client = pImg->client;
idata.kbytes = pFrag->kilobytes;
idata.backedup_ dt = pImg->backup_time ;
idata.fragNum = pFrag->fragment;

}
(mdata.imageLis t).push_back(id ata);

Here I am getting core dump at push_back(idata ).

Posted the stack trace in previous messages.

Thanks
Ganesh.

The most probable situation is that your 'ImageData' has some
dynamic memory that you don't handle correctly. Find and read
about "The Rule Of Three".

Almost certainly your ImageData object does not have a valid copy
constructor.
