Re: segmentation fault


Oliver Block escribiÃ:
Hello,
...
(gdb) p sizeof(struct servent)
$1 = 16

When I extract

from #2:
sptr = (struct servent *) 0x804b028

from #4:
r = 0x804b030


as servent has a size of 16 bytes

804b028 + 16 = 0x804b038

These two variables seem to overlap. Do you agree?

No. ;)
Maybe I'm wrong, but sptr is a pointer, so it uses 0x804b028 and 0x804b029.
The memory pointed by this pointer is the one that has size 16.

Regards,
Raul.
