First of all, I need to apolgoize; I am not a programmer and its been
years since I last programmed something so this is probably a very
simple question. For work, I have to write a simulation.
I am using MS VC++ in XP
Relevant:
I have a local integer pointer:
int *nr1 = NULL;
within this function, I call another function
int *function2([parameters])
This function mallocs an int *ptr and returns it. So I use the
function like:
nr1 = function2([parameter]);
Now when I try to free it later in my first function (the one that
calls function2), I get an MSVC++ error. The exact wording is:
Debug Error!
Program: <path>
DAMAGE: after Normal block (#46) at 0x00431D80
(Press Retry to debug the application)
Any suggestions on what might cause this? thanks!
As Ian says, not enough information. We need to see what function2 is
doing.
