Can someone explain to me why my call to malloc with a string size of 6 returns a sizeof of 4 bytes? In fact, any integer argument I give malloc I get a sizeof of 4. Next, I am trying to copy two strings. Why is my ouput of the copied string (NULL)? Following...

Someone here recently pointed out to me in a piece of code of mine I am using
char* name = malloc(256*sizeof(char)); // more code free(name);
I was under the impression that this way of setting up an array was identical to using
char name[256];
and that...

Break down your statement
char* name = malloc(256*sizeof(char)); // one statement char *name; // Step 1 declare pointer to character name = malloc(256*sizeof(char)); // assign address to pointer.

Hello,
Please consider:
int i; char other[4096][16]; i = sizeof(other[0]);
i = 16... which is okay!
Now please consider:
typedef struct T_Lb Lb; struct T_Lb { char** m_Buffer; }; char *LstB1[2] = {"Default", "Stop"}; void LB_NewLb(Lb* pLB, char** mm)...

So my question is ....

It's sizeof(char) * 16 - you just passed it to mallocwhich is 16.

Hey!
I am wondering what happens if I lets say use 64bit integers on my computer?
As we all know sizeof(int) is not always 4 - it is computer dependent. However CUDA GPUs use 32 bit int - sizeof(int) = 4.
What I am wondering...

In fact sizeof(int) is *NOT* computer-dependent, but purely compiler.

Approach, you have to find a place to free those malloc -ed memory when the values are not needed.

Could you explain following code?
str = (char *) malloc (sizeof(char) * (num+1));
What's is malloc? Why num + 1?

We recently received a report that our application will occasionally fail to run. I tracked down the problem code to this:

If you don't do that, the compiler thinks you want to define your own function named malloc ....
