I have the following code, it searches for some matches with regex (pcre) then adds the matches to a dynamically growing array (so I can make the matches unique)... the problem I get two warnings when compiling and when running the program crashes.
#include <unistd.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <pcre.h>
int main() {
pcre *myregexp;
const char *error;
int erroroffset;
int offsetcount;
int offsets[(0+1)*3]; // (max_capturing_groups+1)*3
const char *result;
int n;
int count = 1;
char **matches;
char **more_matches;
char *subject = "9,5,3,2,5,6,3,2,5,6,3,2,2,2,5,0,5,5,6,6,1,";
myregexp = pcre_compile("\\d,", PCRE_MULTILINE|PCRE_DOTALL, &error, &erroroffset, NULL);
if (myregexp != NULL) {
offsetcount = pcre_exec(myregexp, NULL, subject, strlen(subject), 0, 0, offsets, (0+1)*3);
while (offsetcount > 0) {
if (pcre_get_substring(subject, offsets, offsetcount, 0, &result) >= 0) {
printf("%s\n", result);
more_matches = (char *) realloc(matches, count * sizeof(char));
if (more_matches!=NULL) {
matches=more_matches;
matches[count-1]=result;
count++;
}
else {
free(matches);
puts("Error (re)allocating memory");
exit(1);
}
}
offsetcount = pcre_exec(myregexp, NULL, subject, strlen(subject), offsets[1], 0, offsets, (0+1)*3);
}
for (n=0; n<count; n++) printf("%s\n", matches[n]);
free(matches);
} else {
printf("Syntax error in REGEX at erroroffset\n");
}
}
casting something wrong?
$ gcc -o pcre_ex_arr pcre_ex_arr.c -lpcre

======= Backtrace: =========
A number of things wrong:
sizeof()
when resizing your matches
pointer array matches
to NULL before the parsing begins. matches
and more_matches
pointers. subject
malloc
and realloc
is never good in C count
is flaky-at-best. It should start at 0, not 1 See below:
int main()
{
pcre *myregexp;
const char *error;
int erroroffset;
int offsetcount;
int offsets[(0+1)*3]; // (max_capturing_groups+1)*3
const char *result;
int n;
int count = 0;
const char **matches = NULL;
const char **more_matches;
char subject[] = "9,5,3,2,5,6,3,2,5,6,3,2,2,2,5,0,5,5,6,6,1,";
myregexp = pcre_compile("\\d,", PCRE_MULTILINE|PCRE_DOTALL, &error, &erroroffset, NULL);
if (myregexp != NULL) {
offsetcount = pcre_exec(myregexp, NULL, subject, strlen(subject), 0, 0, offsets, (0+1)*3);
while (offsetcount > 0) {
if (pcre_get_substring(subject, offsets, offsetcount, 0, &result) >= 0)
{
printf("%s\n", result);
more_matches = realloc(matches, (count+1)* sizeof(*more_matches));
if (more_matches!=NULL)
{
matches=more_matches;
matches[count++]=result;
}
else
{
free(matches);
puts("Error (re)allocating memory");
exit(1);
}
}
offsetcount = pcre_exec(myregexp, NULL, subject, strlen(subject), offsets[1], 0, offsets, (0+1)*3);
}
for (n=0; n<count; n++) printf("%s\n", matches[n]);
free(matches);
} else {
printf("Syntax error in REGEX at erroroffset\n");
}
