打开文件会导致sYSMALLOc断言失败

我一直在努力解决这个问题,我无法弄清楚出了什么问题。这是代码:

//the code for the function that is being called
//charset is a const char[] consisting of 91 characters
//charset_size is 91
void set_sequence(char keyword[], int keyword_size){

    sequence = malloc(keyword_size);

    int i = 0, j = 0;

    for(i = 0; i < keyword_size; i++){

        for(j = 0; j < charset_size; j++){

            if(keyword[i] == charset[j]){

                sequence[i] = j;

            }

        }

    }

    sequence_size = keyword_size;

}

//the function call in main
set_sequence("foo bar\n", 8);

//there's supposed to be stuff done here with sequence that I haven't implemented yet
free(sequence); //sequence is a global variable that I use the function to set

FILE* dest = fopen("cipher", "w");

我包含文件位的原因是因为当它存在时,我得到断言失败,但是当它被注释掉时,代码运行得非常好(在那行之后我什么都没有,因为我试图查明问题)。 / p>

我通过valgrind的memcheck valgrind --tool=memcheck ../bin/cipher运行代码来查看问题所在,但我无法理解它。这是输出:

你没有给出序列声明。它是char数组还是int数组?如果它是一个int数组,那么你的malloc是错误的,它需要分配keyword_size * sizeof(int)个字节
