Can you please help with this issue, is the below gonna leak memory or is it ok? and please let me know if there is something else that I need to pay attention to
typedef struct
{
int len;
UC * message;
}pack;
pack * prepare_packet_to_send(const int length,const unsigned char tag,const int numargs, ... )
{
pack *layer= malloc(sizeof(pack));
va_list listp;
va_start( listp, numargs );
int step = 0;
layer->message = (unsigned char *) malloc(length);
layer->len = length;
int i = 0;
int len = 0;
unsigned char *source_message ;
for( i = 0 ; i < numargs; i++ )
{
source_message = va_arg( listp, unsigned char *);
len = va_arg( listp, long);
memcpy(layer->message+step, source_message, (long) len);
step+=len;
}
va_end( listp );
return layer;
}
main()
{
pack *test = call prepare_packet_to_send(sizeof(var1)+sizeof(var2),any tag,any args)
// are following two frees correct/enough? or is there something else i need to do to prevent mem leak?
free(test->message);
free(test);
}
