drd*_*dot 2 c pointers segmentation-fault
我尝试使用C编写一个简单的数据库.但是,我尝试调试我的分段错误,并发现通过malloc获得的内存指针似乎正在改变(名称和电子邮件指针似乎指向Database_load程序执行之前和之后的不同内存位置).我有两个问题:
为什么在执行Database_load之前和之后内存指针(名称和电子邮件)指向不同的位置?
程序为什么会产生seg错误?
这是与问题相关的代码

更新:我还有一些额外的设计问题.看起来当前数据结构的设计存在问题.我将在这里详细说明设计要求:
除了我创建的功能之外,我不需要任何额外的功能.数据库的大小(MAX_DATA和MAX_ROWS必须是可变的).现在我每次调用程序时都会输入MAX_DATA和MAX_ROWS.这可以改善吗?我想可能只是在需要使用Database_create方法时给出MAX_DATA和MAX_ROWS.这个程序来自一个有趣的练习(c.learncodethehardway.org/book/ex17.html),原始程序有一个修复大小的数据库.目标是使其变成可变大小.
在Database_load,你正在做:
int rc = fread(conn->db, sizeof(struct Database), 1, conn->file);
Run Code Online (Sandbox Code Playgroud)
但是,conn->db是一个指向类型的指针,struct Database唯一的元素是:
struct Address *rows;
Run Code Online (Sandbox Code Playgroud)
简而言之,您正在尝试从文件的一个位置初始化指针 .这不是指向指针变量本身的内容的缓冲区/数组(即内存中指向的地址)rowsfreadrowsrowsrows
既然你已经初始化rows了Database_open,那么fread看起来很可疑,因为:
你已经设置好了 rows
做(例如)void *ptr = ...; read(fd,&ptr,sizeof(ptr));几乎从不正确.
更正常的用法是: void *ptr = ...; read(fd,ptr,some_length);
您通过执行上述(2)的等效来覆盖[废弃] rows初始化的值Database_open.如果你写的话,它就像[坏]一样:
conn->db->rows = NULL;

要么:
conn->db->rows = (void *) 0x1234;
Run Code Online (Sandbox Code Playgroud)
我不完全确定,因为我无法在没有数据的情况下测试程序,但您可以简单地删除上面的内容fread.或者,如果数据库中真正存在某种类型的标题,那么它必须替换为其他类型的标题.
但是,如果你拿出fread来,rows保持完整,它指向的内容将for像现在一样填充在循环中.
更新:
我看到了问题.我认为这是一个更糟糕的设计.基本上,我将指针存储到数据库中并尝试将其读出并在不同的程序执行中访问相同的指针地址.
我在我的原始帖子中提到过,但是在我的编辑中删除了它,因为我认为你没有尝试这样做而且fread更像是一个"错字".
但是,尝试在文件中存储指针的持久值并在下次调用时恢复它们是一种糟糕的设计.
特别是如果指针来自malloc.旧指针可能会malloc在第二次调用时发生冲突.而且,你怎么能告诉malloc老指针现在以某种方式"保留"?
对于指向全局/静态内存的指针,如果重建程序并添加新变量[更改所有内容的地址和偏移量]会发生什么?
简而言之,你不能这样做[这也是很长的答案:-)].
我能想到的解决方案是只存储struct Address,并命名字符串,地址字符串.这会是一个更好的设计吗?
是的,如果你的意思是:
struct Address {
int id;
int set;
char name[MAX_DATA];
char email[MAX_DATA];
};
Run Code Online (Sandbox Code Playgroud)
现在,struct Address可以读/写一个文件,因为它没有指针(即那是键)
作为另一个例子,考虑如果struct Address有嵌入式链表列表指针会发生什么:
struct Address {
struct Address *link;
int id;
int set;
char name[MAX_DATA];
char email[MAX_DATA];
};
// simple traversal
for (addr = addrlist; addr != NULL; addr = addr->next) {
// do stuff ...
// broken, because struct Address has a pointer
fwrite(addr,sizeof(struct Address),fout);
}
// fix for above
for (addr = addrlist; addr != NULL; addr = addr->next) {
// do stuff ...
fwrite(addr->id,sizeof(addr->id),fout);
fwrite(addr->set,sizeof(addr->set),fout);
fwrite(addr->name,sizeof(addr->name),fout);
fwrite(addr->email,sizeof(addr->email),fout);
}
Run Code Online (Sandbox Code Playgroud)
这是一个更孤立的方式来做列表:
struct Address {
int id;
int set;
char name[MAX_DATA];
char email[MAX_DATA];
};
// NOTE: either of these works
#if 1
struct AddrLink {
struct AddrLink *link;
struct Address *data;
};
#else
struct AddrLink {
struct AddrLink *link;
struct Address data;
};
#endif
// indirect list traversal
for (link = addrlist; link != NULL; link = link->next) {
// do stuff ...
// works because struct Address does _not_ have a pointer
fwrite(link->data,sizeof(struct Address),fout);
}

在一般情况下,您要做的与序列化类似.这是一个链接:C - 序列化技术这是另一个:用C语言序列化数据结构
当我这样做时,我喜欢在数据前加上标准的"section"标题.类似的技术被使用.mp4,.avi文件:
struct section {
int type; // section type
int totlen; // total section length
int size; // sizeof of section element
int count; // number of array elements
};
#define TYPE_ADDRESS 1
#define TYPE_CITY 2
#define TYPE_STATE 3
#define TYPE_COUNTRY 4

这样,如果你的程序不理解新类型,因为它是较旧的版本,它仍然可以复制或跳过它不理解的数据而不会损害它.(例如)在处理.mp4文件时这是必需的行为.
更新#2:
我已经发布了完整的代码.你能建议一个更好的设计方法吗?我没有对数据库文件格式化的特定约束
好的,下面的工作代码......
我用结构改变了一些东西[并重命名].值得注意的是,您调用的主结构[ Connection现在称为database_t].Address现在address_t.
你非常接近.你试图用你的旧东西 做什么struct Database,我换了dbheader_t.也就是说,这些是我正在谈论的数据库头结构.你的指针就在里面.我在行数据开始之前将最大行数和最大数据记录为数据库文件的第一部分
我将分配代码移动到一个新函数Database_alloc[因为它现在必须在两个不同的地方调用].
Database_open必须要稍微聪明一些.对于c操作,它会填充数据库标头.对于所有其他操作,它必须打开DB文件并读取磁盘头.
此外,conn->db->rows现在使用新的结构组织,而不是随处可见db->rows.
总的来说,你已经非常接近了.
我也重新设计main更有点人性化(即你只需要输入MAX_DATA/MAX_ROWS的c命令.
