[英]The lifetime of a pointer reference in C++
I wrote some code that involves moving and changing variables in C++.我写了一些涉及在 C++ 中移动和更改变量的代码。 Below is what I have wrote.
下面是我写的。
#include <iostream>
void six(int*& ptr) {
int s = 6;
ptr = &s;
}
int main() {
int f = 5;
int* ptr = &f;
std::cout << *ptr << '\n';
six(ptr);
if (ptr) {
std::cout << *ptr;
}
else {
std::cout << "null\n";
}
return 0;
}
so this prints:所以这会打印:
5
6
I tried another code, adding a single line:我尝试了另一个代码,添加了一行:
#include <iostream>
void six(int*& ptr) {
int s = 6;
ptr = &s;
free(&s); // added line
}
int main() {
int f = 5;
int* ptr = &f;
std::cout << *ptr << '\n';
six(ptr);
if (ptr) {
std::cout << *ptr;
}
else {
std::cout << "null\n";
}
return 0;
}
Obviously, this gives an error after printing 5
because what the modified pointer is pointing is not available when called the second time.显然,这在打印
5
后会出错,因为第二次调用时修改后的指针指向的内容不可用。
However, I am confused at the first case.但是,我对第一种情况感到困惑。 When calling
six
in the main function, variable s
is not in the main scope, but the value itself still continues to remain in the memory to be referenced.在 main 函数中调用
six
时,变量s
不在 main 作用域内,但值本身仍然继续留在内存中被引用。 Doesn't C++ automatically destroy variables and clean them when it goes out of the scope?当变量超出范围时,C++ 不会自动销毁变量并清除它们吗? Is this a memory leak?
这是内存泄漏吗?
The first case is not a memory leak, but an undefined behaviour because your variable go out of scope.第一种情况不是内存泄漏,而是未定义的行为,因为您的变量超出了范围。
In this case you don't know when the memory will be cleaned(replaced) o reallocated.在这种情况下,您不知道何时清理(替换)或重新分配内存。
So in some case the result can be correct but it's a pure question of luck.因此,在某些情况下,结果可能是正确的,但这纯粹是运气问题。
