Calling free() on an uninitialised pointer?
13 answers - 315 bytes -
Hi,
If I call free() with a uninitialised pointer, will the program
state become undefined, or will free() return harmlessly?
Incidentally, is there a way in Standard C to determine
weather a pointer points to a valid block of allocated
memory?
Thanks for your time.
