在C中读取字符串

如果我正在使用C gets(),并且我正在从用户那里读取一个字符串,但我不知道我需要多大的缓冲区,并且输入可能非常大。 有没有办法可以确定用户输入的字符串有多大,然后分配内存然后将其放入变量中? 或者至少是一种接受输入而不知道它有多大的方法,有可能它不适合我已经分配的缓冲区。

我认为使用适当大的中间缓冲区,并通过将字符串长度限制为最大缓冲区大小,使用fgets或其他函数将字符串输入到其中。 稍后输入字符串时。 计算字符串长度并分配字符串大小的缓冲区并将其复制到新分配的缓冲区中。 旧的大缓冲区可以重用于这些输入。

你可以做:

fgets (buffer, BUFSIZ, stdin);

要么

scanf ("%128[^\n]%*c", buffer);

在这里,您可以将缓冲区长度128个字节指定为%128..并且还包括字符串中的所有空白空间。

然后计算长度并分配新的缓冲区:

 len = strlen (buffer); string = malloc (sizeof (char) * len + 1); strcpy (string, buffer); . . . free (string); 

编辑

这是我解决的一种方式:

 #include  #include  #include  int main (void) { char *buffer[10]; /* temporary buffers 10 nos, or make this dynamically allocated */ char *main_str; /* The main string to work with after input */ int k, i=0, n, retval; while (1) { buffer[i] = malloc (sizeof (char) * 16); /* allocate buffer size 16 */ scanf ("%15[^\n]%n", buffer[i], &n); /* input length 15 string + 1 byte for null */ if (n<16) /* Buffer is not filled and end of string reached */ break; n=0; /* reinitialize n=0 for next iteration. to make the process work if the length of the string is exactly the sizeof the buffer */ i++; } /* need to fix the while loop so that the buffer array does not overflow and protect it from doing so */ /* allocate buffer of exact size of the string */ main_str = malloc (sizeof (char) * 16 * i + strlen (buffer[i])); /* copy the segmented string into the main string to be worked with * and free the buffers */ strcpy (main_str, ""); for (k=0; k<=i; k++) { strcat (main_str, buffer[k]); free (buffer[k]); } /* work with main string */ printf ("\n%s", main_str); /* free main string */ free (main_str); return 0; } 

您需要修复代码以在某些情况下停止崩溃,但这应该回答您的问题。

没有gets() 请改用fgets()

您无法使用gets()安全地获取用户输入。

您需要在循环中使用fgets() (或fgetc() )。

不要使用gets() 。 使用fgets() ,然后估计需要多少缓冲区空间。

fgets的优点是,如果你过去,它只会写出最大数量的字符,并且不会破坏程序另一部分的内存。

 char buff[100]; fgets(buff,100,stdin); 

最多只能读取99个字符或直到达到”\ n’。 如果有空间,它会将新行读入数组。

动态分配缓冲区并使用fgets。 如果你向上填充缓冲区然后它不够大,所以使用realloc然后再次fgets(但写入字符串的末尾以保持你已经抓住的东西)来增长它。 继续这样做,直到你的缓冲区大于输入:

 buffer = malloc(bufsize); do{ GotStuff = fgets(buffer, bufsize, stdin)) buffer[bufsize-1] = 0; if (GotStuff && (strlen(buffer) >= bufsize-1)) { oldsize = bufsize; buffer = realloc(bufsize *= 2); GotStuff = fgets( buffer + oldsize, bufsize - oldsize, stdin ) buffer[bufsize-1] = 0; } } while (GotStuff && (strlen(buffer) >= bufsize-1)); 

你用gets()描述的问题 – 无法知道目标缓冲区需要多大来存储输入 – 这正是为什么库调用在1999标准中被弃用的原因,并且预计将完全从下一个标准中消失修改; 期望大多数编译器能够相对快速地效仿。 由一个库函数引起的混乱比破坏40年遗留代码的前景更可怕。

一种解决方案是使用fgets()和固定长度的缓冲区读取输入的零碎,然后将其附加到动态可resize的目标缓冲区中。 例如:

 #include  #include  #define SIZE 512; char *getNextLine(FILE *stream, size_t *length) { char *output; char input[SIZE+1]; *length = 0; int foundNewline = 0; /** * Initialize our output buffer */ if ((output = malloc(1)) != NULL); { *output = 0; *length = 1; } else { return NULL; } /** * Read SIZE chars from the input stream until we hit EOF or * see a newline character */ while(fgets(input, sizeof input, stream) != NULL && !foundNewline) { char *newline = strchr(input, '\n'); char *tmp = NULL; /** * Strip the newline if present */ foundNewline = (newline != NULL); if (foundNewline) { *newline = 0; } /** * Extend the output buffer */ tmp = realloc(output, *length + strlen(input)); if (tmp) { output = tmp; strcat(output, input); *length += strlen(input); } } return *output; } 

当输入完成后,调用者将负责释放缓冲区。

如果你在Unix平台上,你可能应该使用getline() ,这完全是为了这种事情。

如果你的平台没有getline() ,这里有一些公共域代码可以让你使用它。 这个post有点长,但这是因为代码试图真正处理现实生活中的错误和情况(甚至不是那么现实生活中的错误,如内存耗尽)。

它可能不是最高性能的版本,也不是最优雅的版本。 它使用fgetc()逐个选择字符,并且当它读取字符时,它会在数据结束时将空终止符放在数据的末尾。 但是,即使面对错误和大小数据集,我相信它也是正确的。 它的表现足以满足我的目的。

我不是特别喜欢getline()接口,但我使用它是因为它是各种标准。

以下将使用GCC(MinGW)和MSVC编译(作为C ++ – 它使用与语句混合的声明,当编译为C时,MSVC仍然不支持。也许我会在有一天修复它)。

Read data into a dynamically resizable buffer until EOF or until a delimiter character is found. The returned data will be null terminated (unless there's an error that prevents it). params: lineptr - a pointer to a char* allocated by malloc() (actually any pointer that can legitimately be passed to free()). *lineptr will be updated by getdelim() if the memory block needs to be reallocated to accommodate the input data. *lineptr can be NULL (though lineptr itself cannot), in which case the function will allocate any necessary buffer. n - a pointer to a size_t object that contains the size of the buffer pointed to by *lineptr (if non-NULL). The size of whatever buff the resulting data is returned in will be passed back in *n delim - the delimiter character. The function will stop reading one this character is read form the stream. It will be included in the returned data, and a null terminator character will follow it. stream - A FILE* stream object to read data from. Returns: The number of characters placed in the returned buffer, including the delimiter character, but not including the terminating null. If no characters are read and EOF is set (or attempting to read from the stream on the first attempt caused the eof indication to be set), a null terminator will be written to the buffer and 0 will be returned. If an error occurs while reading the stream, a 0 will be returned. A null terminator will not necessarily be at the end of the data written. On the following error conditions, the negative value of the error code will be returned: ENOMEM: out of memory EOVERFLOW: SSIZE_MAX character written to te buffer before reaching the delimiter (on Windows, EOVERFLOW is mapped to ERANGE) The buffer will not necessarily be null terminated in these cases. Notes: The returned data might include embedded nulls (if they exist in the data stream) - in that case, the return value of the function is the only way to reliably determine how much data was placed in the buffer. If the function returns 0 use feof() and/or ferror() to determine which case caused the return. If EOF is returned after having written one or more characters to the buffer, a normal count will be returned (but there will be no delimiter character in the buffer). If 0 is returned and ferror() returns a non-zero value, the data buffer may not be null terminated. In other cases where a negative value is returned, the data buffer is not necessarily null terminated and there is no reliable means to determining what data in the buffer is valid. The pointer returned in *lineptr and the buffer size returned in *n will be valid on error returns unless NULL pointers are passed in for one or more of these parameters (in which case the return value will be -EINVAL). */ ssize_t nx_getdelim(char **lineptr, size_t *n, int delim, FILE *stream) { int retval = 0; if (!lineptr || !n) { return -EINVAL; } ssize_t result = 0; char* line = *lineptr; size_t size = *n; size_t count = 0; int err = 0; int ch; for (;;) { ch = fgetc( stream); if (ch == EOF) { break; } result = nx_getdelim_append( &line, &size, count, ch); // check for error adding to the buffer (ie., out of memory) if (result < 0) { err = -ENOMEM; break; } ++count; // check if we're done because we've found the delimiter if ((unsigned char)ch == (unsigned char)delim) { break; } // check if we're passing the maximum supported buffer size if (count > SSIZE_MAX) { err = -EOVERFLOW; break; } } // update the caller's data *lineptr = line; *n = size; // check for various error returns if (err != 0) { return err; } if (ferror(stream)) { return 0; } if (feof(stream) && (count == 0)) { if (nx_getdelim_append( &line, &size, count, 0) < 0) { return -ENOMEM; } } return count; } ssize_t nx_getline(char **lineptr, size_t *n, FILE *stream) { return nx_getdelim( lineptr, n, '\n', stream); } /* versions of getline() and getdelim() that attempt to follow POSIX semantics (ie. they set errno on error returns and return -1 when the stream error indicator or end-of-file indicator is set (ie., ferror() or feof() would return non-zero). */ ssize_t getdelim(char **lineptr, size_t *n, char delim, FILE *stream) { ssize_t retval = nx_getdelim( lineptr, n, delim, stream); if (retval < 0) { errno = -retval; retval = -1; } if (retval == 0) { retval = -1; } return retval; } ssize_t getline(char **lineptr, size_t *n, FILE *stream) { return getdelim( lineptr, n, '\n', stream); }
