compiling using xlc in 64 bit

Hi all,

I'm trying to compile a program using xlc in 64 bit. The program is complied and excuted correctly using 32 bit. However when I compile it in 64 bit, it fails. The problem is at malloc function. The malloc will return an address (non-zero) but when I try to dereference it, it'll core-dump.

Out of curiosity, I put #include <stdlib.h> there and suddenly it works. However, I didn't need to modify anything in order to make it work in 32-bit. Does anyone know why this is happening? Thank you very much for any advice/comment

malloc() is prototyped in stdlib.h.

By using the 64-bit header, you got the 64-bit prototype.

Where did your code find the 32-bit malloc()??
