在C中打印void *变量

Question

Hi all I want to do a debug with printf. But I don't know how to print the "out" variable.

Before the return, I want to print this value, but its type is void* .

int 
hexstr2raw(char *in, void *out) {
    char c;
    uint32_t i = 0;
    uint8_t *b = (uint8_t*) out;
    while ((c = in[i]) != '\0') {
        uint8_t v;
        if (c >= '0' && c <= '9') {
            v = c - '0';
        } else if (c >= 'A' && c <= 'F') {
            v = 10 + c - 'A';
        } else if (c >= 'a' || c <= 'f') {
            v = 10 + c - 'a';
        } else {
            return -1;
        }
        if (i%2 == 0) {
            b[i/2] = (v << 4);
            printf("c='%c' \t v='%u' \t b[i/2]='%u' \t i='%u'\n", c,v ,b[i/2], i);}
        else {
            b[i/2] |= v;
            printf("c='%c' \t v='%u' \t b[i/2]='%u' \t i='%u'\n", c,v ,b[i/2], i);}
        i++;
    }
    printf("%s\n", out);
    return i;
}

How can I do? Thanks.

Answer 1

printf("%p\n", out);

是打印(void*)指针的正确方法。

Answer 2

This:

uint8_t *b = (uint8_t*) out;

implies that out is in fact a pointer to uint8_t , so perhaps you want to print the data that's actually there. Also note that you don't need to cast from void * in C, so the cast is really pointless.

The code seems to be doing hex to binary conversion, storing the results at out . You can print the i generated bytes by doing:

int j;
for(j = 0; j < i; ++j)
  printf("%02x\n", ((uint8_t*) out)[j]);

The pointer value itself is rarely interesting, but you can print it with printf("%p\\n", out); . The %p formatting specifier is for void * .

Answer 3

The format specifier for printing void pointers using printf in C is %p . What usually gets printed is a hexadecimal representation of the pointer (although the standard says simply that it is an implementation defined character sequence defining a pointer).
