This way each getline call will allocate a new buffer. getline is designed so that you can use it in a loop with just one allocated buffer, which is realloced by getline when needed. So the right fix would be actually to move the free(line); statement after the loop. Of course if you e.g. want to preserve the buffer with the line data, stick pointer to it into some data structure, then you'd just do that and clear the pointer so that next getline iteration will allocate a fresh buffer. > --- compiler.c~ 2008-02-29 07:06:46.000000000 +0100 > +++ compiler.c 2008-02-29 23:55:41.000000000 +0100 > @@ -25,6 +25,7 @@ > } > > free(line); > + line = NULL; > STACKfree(); > } > Jakub -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
