Are you referring to a "splash screen?"

This question has only just been asked, and I suspect by you.
Search for "Splash Screen" && !FlashScreen...
The answers were clearly given. You do realise that it's not a picture of a search button that we have here?? It is in fact a fully functional bells-n-whistles Search Button, that strangely enough lets you search for things.

What is wrong in this strcpy()?
I tried this function call, no compile time errors, but results in error during runtime.
What could be the problem in that function call?
char *s= "TEST";
char *s1= NULL;
char * s_cpy(char * s,char * s1)
{
char * p=(char*) malloc(strlen(s));
p=s;
printf("%s\n",p); // prints TEST
printf("%s\n",s1); // prints <null>
printf("%s\n",s); // prints TEST
strcpy(s1,p); //error, test.exe has encountered a problem
return s1;
}

Prints what? Junk? Zero? Null?

You never allocated memory to s1, but are trying to write to something to it.

I am sorry for tat.
Since i have already set
char *s1=NULL;
printf("%s\n",s1); // prints NULL
|

If you're calling s_cpy() function with s, s1 (global variables i.e.
char *s= "TEST";
char *s1= NULL; ) the formal parameter s1 will hold NULL (invalid pointer) which makes strcpy() crash.
The prototype for strcpy() is
char *strcpy( char *strDestination, const char *strSource);
Passing invalid pointer at any of the parameter to strcpy (or any string function taking char *) will crash the program.
|
|
|
|
|
Even when i change s1 to
char *s1="TEMP";
strcpy(s1,p); // resulting in error.
|
|
|
|
|
char *s1 = "TEMP" defines the char pointer to constant "TEMP", of which you cann't change the value. which makes strcpy() fail.

return s1;
}

One suggestion
Member 5502879 wrote: char * p=(char*) malloc(strlen(s));
p=s;
you allocating buffer and assigning some other pointer to p again.
this will cause memory leak.

Even if do not create 'p' and directly copy s to s1,
strcpy(s1,s);
im still getting the same error.
|
|
|
|

Try allocating memory to s1 before you copy stuff into it and then tell if it crashes. If it doesn't, well, guess why.

I did not answer you why it crashes..
others have already told you the reason.
I just pointed the mistake.

try allocate memory like this:
char * s_cpy(char * s,char * s1)
{
char * p =(char*) malloc(strlen(s)+1);
s1 = (char*) malloc(10); //use this!!!!
p=s;
printf("%s\n",p); // prints TEST
printf("%s\n",s1); // prints
printf("%s\n",s); // prints TEST
strcpy(s1,p); //error, test.exe has encountered a problem
return s1;
}
don forget to free them up later or you will encounter memory leak...

And what's the point of doing the above?

allocating memory so i won't be a NULL pointer anymore...
|
|
|
|

char * p =(char*) malloc(strlen(s)+1);
s1 = (char*) malloc(10);
p=s;
allocating memory for p and then setting p=s; make no sense to me.

yup, i know...i meant allocating memory for s1..
my concern wasn't on part where p=s. i thought application crashed due to NULL pointer on s1...that's why we must allocate memory for s1...

I see two issues.
Member 5502879 wrote: char * p=(char*) malloc(strlen(s));
p=s;
You've reassigned p to some other address. This will cause problems if you go to free the address returned by malloc().
Member 5502879 wrote: strcpy(s1,p); //error, test.exe has encountered a problem
Because s1 has not been allocated any memory. strcpy() is therefore dereferencing a null pointer.

Several things are wrong. As pointed out, s1 is allocated as just a pointer to a string so you cannot copy data to it. In addition, you allocated only strlen bytes for the p copy, you need to allocate strlen+1 to allow the terminating null for string s. You may get away with this if a paragraph (16 bytes) is probably allocated for the malloc, but it is still bad code.
