RE: [Dev-C++] Problem on XP Professional

Mohammed,

You have a buffer overflow or a problem with pointers. For example, if you
declared in one place char a[] = "Hello world", then tried to do
sprintf(a,"xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"), that could do it. More likely, you're
doing something like assigning an invalid value to a pointer or failing to
use malloc().

If your program took three hours to compile and you haven't debugged it,
yet, it's going to take you a LONG time to find all the problems. I suggest
reading up on pointers at http://www.eskimo.com/~scs/C-faq/top.html

Hope that helps!

Hi...


I wrote a a large program with Dev-C++ on Windows XP Professional. The
compilation went smooth for three hours and the program ran fine. There's
only one problem I can't find the reason for it. Some parts of my program
when I try to use produces an error message saying that some portion of
memory can't be written. Why?
