如何为结构数组分配 memory？

Question

我有一个 C++ 库（实际上是另一个 C++ 库的包装器），我需要将一些struct传递给我的 C 应用程序。

我不知道如何动态分配 memory。

我得到一个分段错误。

struct my_substruct {
    unsigned char                   id                    ;
    time_t                          date                  ;
    char                            *info                 ;
};
typedef struct my_substruct         My_substruct          ;

struct my_struct {
    char                            *description          ;
    unsigned char                   value                 ;
    My_substruct                    *substruct            ;
};
typedef my_struct                   My_struct             ;

    unsigned char indexStruct                   = 0;
    for (auto s : structsCPPLibrary)
    {
        structs[indexStruct].description        = (char *)malloc(s.description.size() + 1);
        strcpy(structs[indexStruct].description, s.description.c_str()); // In 's' is a std::string
        structs[indexStruct].value              = s.value;               // In 's' is an unsigned char too
        unsigned char numSubstructs             = s.substructs.size();   // In 's' is a vector of Substructs
        structs[indexStruct].substruct          = (My_substruct *)malloc(numSubstructs*sizeof(My_substruct));
        unsigned char indexSubstruct            = 0;
        for (auto sub : s.substruct) {
            structs[indexStruct].substruct[indexSubstruct].id   = sub.id;    // In 'sub' is an unsigned char too
            structs[indexStruct].substruct[indexSubstruct].date = sub.date;  // In 'sub' is a time_t too
            structs[indexStruct].substruct[indexSubstruct].info = (char *)malloc(sub.info.size() + 1);
            strcpy(structs[indexStruct].substruct[indexSubstruct].info, sub.info.c_str()); // In 'sub' is a std::string
            indexSubstruct++;
        }
        indexStruct++;
    }
    return indexStruct;
}

void getStructFromWrapper(void)
{
    My_struct *structs;
    unsigned char numStruct = getStructs(structs);
    show_content(structs);
}

改变

unsigned char getStructs(My_struct *structs) {
    ...
}
getStructs(structs);

至

unsigned char getStructs(My_struct **p_structs) {
    // C function can't be pass by reference, so convert to a reference here
    auto& struct = *p_structs;  
    ...
}
...
getStructs(&structs);

您的问题是您的struct =...行没有修改getStructFromWrapper中structs的值。
