RE: strcpy HELP!!!!

["Scott D. Killen" <wizard@skillsoft.com>]

Phil,

You are copying the string to temp2 which has not been initialized and is a
NULL pointer.  You need to allocate memory of at least the same size as
temp1 to temp2 and
this will solve your problem.

Subject: strcpy HELP!!!!


I'm using libc6 2.0.7pre1-4 and strcpy gives me a segmentation
error!
I've attached my C test program for inspection(source only).

I only do a few things.  malloc memory for a variable(forgot a
corresponding free)
copy a string in this varible, copy this string to another
string, print both
on the screen.  The exact error message is attached to the
source.

I will now check bug track.

Thanks in advance

Philip
