valgrind Query
 

Hi,

valgrind shows the following log.

Invalid read of size 1

at 0x658AA7A: avmplus::String::equals(avmplus::String*) const (StringObject.cpp:186)
==2276== by 0x653037B: avmplus::AvmCore::findString(avmplus::String*) (AvmCore.cpp:3030)

My code is---

for (int32_t j = 0; j < len; j++)
{
if (str1[j] != str2[j]) ----------- crashing at this point
{
return false;
}
}

When i am checking the values at crash point in gdb its showing as

p len
$5 = 30
p j
$6 = 0
p str1[j]
$7 = 0 '\000'
p str2[j]
$8 = 72 'H'


Can anyone help me out to resolve the issue

Shruti.

your str (I do not know if str1 or str2) is not initialized properly. see: http://www.cprogramming.com/debugging/valgrind.html
