C - Memncpy/Strncpy（也尝试过 strncat）复制的字符少于应有的 1 个字符，不胜感激

Question

就像我说的，memncpy()（在 main 的中间）复制的字符比它应该复制的少 1 个字符，不知道为什么。我添加了 cmets 和图像以使其更易于理解。

    #define BIT_AMOUNT 4

char * randomBinaryGenerator(char * random){

    int randomNum, i;
    char temp;
    char * tempPtr = (char *)malloc(1 * sizeof(char));

    for(i = 0; i <= BIT_AMOUNT - 1; i++){

        randomNum = rand() % 2;
        temp = randomNum + '0';

        tempPtr = NULL;
        tempPtr = &temp;
        strcat(random, tempPtr);
    }

    return random;
}

int main(){

    srand(time(0));
    char str_bin_bitKey[BIT_AMOUNT] = "";

    char * random = (char *)malloc(BIT_AMOUNT * sizeof(char));
    char * bin_bitKey = (char *)malloc(BIT_AMOUNT * sizeof(char));

    printf("\nSize of str_bin_bitKey: %ld, Size of bin_bitKey: %ld\n", sizeof(str_bin_bitKey), sizeof(bin_bitKey));

    bin_bitKey = randomBinaryGenerator(random);    //generates 4 bit long binary number
    memcpy(str_bin_bitKey, bin_bitKey, BIT_AMOUNT);//copies 1 character less

    printf("\nbin_bitKey:     %s\n", bin_bitKey);    //4 bits
    printf("\nstr_bin_bitKey: %s\n", str_bin_bitKey);//3 bits???

    long long dec_bitKey = 0;//unimportant for now .... convertBinaryToDecimal(bin_bitKey); 

    printf("\ndec_bitKey: %lld\n\n", dec_bitKey);

    free(random);
    return 0;
}

这是输出的样子，你可以看到 str_bin_bitKey 是 3 个字符而不是 4 个：

感谢所有帮助。

几个问题...

在main中，数组/指针的大小需要允许nul终止符，所以它们需要是BIT_AMOUNT + 1

在main 中，您的memcpy 确实不复制 nul 终止符。请改用strcpy。

添加起始 nul 最容易通过（例如）：

*random = 0;

不要投malloc:Do I cast the result of malloc?

sizeof(char) 总是 1（根据定义），不管实际的、依赖于架构的大小（例如，char 实际上是 16 位）。所以，不要使用sizeof(char)

在randomBinaryGenerator 中，tempPtr 泄漏内存。不需要malloc [甚至根本不需要tempPtr]。请改用char temp[2];。

sizeof(bit_bitKey) 总是恒定的，因为它是 pointer 的大小，而 不是 它所指向的东西（即它是 not BIT_AMOUNT)。

randomBinaryGenerator 几乎需要彻底返工。

这是您的代码的注释和固定版本。我添加了：

#if 0

// new/fixed code
#endif

帮助显示更改。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

#define BIT_AMOUNT 4

char *
randomBinaryGenerator(char *random)
{

    int randomNum, i;
#if 0
    char temp;
    char *tempPtr = malloc(1);
#else
    char temp[2];
#endif

#if 1
    // add nul terminator
    *random = 0;
    temp[1] = 0;

    for (i = 0; i <= BIT_AMOUNT - 1; i++) {

这是一个经过清理和改进的版本。请注意，randomBinaryGenerator 更快/更好 完全不使用 strcat。

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <time.h>

#define BIT_AMOUNT 4

char *
randomBinaryGenerator(char *random)
{

    int randomNum, i;

    for (i = 0; i < BIT_AMOUNT; i++) {
        randomNum = rand() % 2;
        random[i] = randomNum + '0';
    }

    // add nul terminator
    random[i] = 0;

    return random;
}

int
main(void)
{

    srand(time(0));

    char str_bin_bitKey[BIT_AMOUNT + 1];
    char *random = malloc(BIT_AMOUNT + 1);
    char *bin_bitKey = malloc(BIT_AMOUNT + 1);

    // generates 4 bit long binary number
    bin_bitKey = randomBinaryGenerator(random);

    strcpy(str_bin_bitKey, bin_bitKey);

    // 4 bits
    printf("\nbin_bitKey:     '%s'\n", bin_bitKey);

    // 3 bits???
    printf("\nstr_bin_bitKey: '%s'\n", str_bin_bitKey);

    // unimportant for now .... convertBinaryToDecimal(bin_bitKey);
    long long dec_bitKey = 0;

    printf("\ndec_bitKey: %lld\n\n", dec_bitKey);

    free(random);

    return 0;
}
