Description Yu Yang 2005-04-28 19:07:32 UTC
I  am trying to print out the value of member function pointers. However, I
found that the compiled executable runs into segment fault. After I added
another local member function pointer variable, the program does not run into
seg fault,but it seems that it gives out incorrect result.

This works at -O0.
But at -O1 or above.

Hmm, this also works just fine on ppc-darwin too.
Comment 4 Andrew Pinski 2005-04-28 19:36:31 UTC
Actually this is invalid, you are going passed the bounds of buf.  %.2x does not do what you want it to 
do.

You want to do the following instead:
void conv_ptr(void * ptr, char* buf)
{
  unsigned char * str = (unsigned char*)ptr;
  int i;
  for(i = 0; i < 3 ; i++)
    sprintf(buf+i*2, "%.2x", str[i]);

  buf[8] = 0;
} 

If you turned on mudflap you would find that we have a violation:
