如何返回char数组并在main中打印?

标签: c arrays function char main

我构建了一个获取整数参数并返回char数组的函数。

例如,对于13的参数,函数应返回" 0013&#34 ;;对于参数3,函数应该返回" 0003"。

但我没有收到错误,我无法用printf(getInstructionIndex(13));

显示此值

这是我的代码:

/* get Instruction Index how "0001" or "0010" */
char * getInstructionIndex(int index){

    char number1;
    char number2;
    char number3;

    char *str = (char *) malloc(sizeof(char) * 4);

        if(index < 10){

            number1 = '0';
            number2 = '0';
            number3 = '0';

            str[0] = number1;
            str[1] = number2;
            str[2] = number3;
            str[3] = index;

            return str;
        }
        else{
            if(index < 100 && index >= 10){

                number1 = '0';
                number2 = '0';

                str[0] = number1;
                str[1] = number2;
                str[2] = index;

                return str;

            }
            else
            {
                if(index < 1000 && index >= 100){
                    number1 = '0';

                    str[0] = '0';
                    str[1] = index;

                    return str;
                }
                else
                {
                    str[0] = index;

                    return str;
                }
            }
        }

        free(str);

}

这是我的主要内容:

int main(int argc, char *argv[]){

    printf("started\n");


    printf(getInstructionIndex(13)); /* i must see 0013*/

    printf("stopped\n");

    return 0;
}

<强>问题

  
      
  • 字符串str仅分配了4个字符,对于null终结符
  • 是不够的   
  • null terminator not added
  •   
  • 复杂逻辑
  •   
  • 内存泄漏
  •   
  • 缺少格式说明符
  •   
  • cast malloc return
  •   

调整后的代码

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

/* get Instruction Index how "0001" or "0010" */
char * getInstructionIndex(int index){
  /* overflow + underflow handling */
  if(index < 0 || index > 9999)return 0;

  /* allocate enough for the null terminator.. */
  char *str = malloc(sizeof(*str) * 5);
  /* error handling */
  if(!str)
  {
    return 0;
  }

  /* simplify logic, use a nice format specifier */
  sprintf(str, "%04d", index);
  return str;
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
  char *instruction_index;
  printf("started\n");
  instruction_index = getInstructionIndex(13);
  if(!instruction_index)
  {
    // error handling here..
    return 0;
  }
  /* add format string.. */
  printf("%s\n", instruction_index); /* i must see 0013*/
  /* release the memory */
  free(instruction_index);
  printf("stopped\n");
  return 0;
}

此代码中确实存在内存泄漏,free应该延迟到打印数组后,例如:

char *str = getInstructionIndex(13)
printf("%s", str); /* i must see 0013*/
free(str);

如果要打印由您应该使用的函数返回的字符串:

printf("%s", str);

还有一件事,你在getInstructionIndex方法中构造的值需要由字符串终结符\0终止(或者你将在输出中获得垃圾)。
