Thanks for the reply Stefan,
that memcpy() does not make much sense to me. I assume the aim is to append
the stuff in extraData at the end of event. However, if you set the
destination address as event + 1 arent you overwriting the data that belongs
to ConfigEvent? Wouldnt the proper dst address for the memcpy be event +
sizeof(configEvent) + 1?
The code currently looks as follows:
static eOgreLoadSceneEvent* loadEventPrepareForSending(std::string
filenameIn)
{
eOgreLoadSceneEvent* eventOut;
const size_t filenameSize = (filenameIn.length() + 1) *
sizeof(char);
const size_t totalSize = filenameSize + sizeof(eq::ConfigEvent);
eventOut = reinterpret_cast<eOgreLoadSceneEvent*>(malloc(
totalSize ));
eventOut->data.type = eOgreLoadSceneEvent::LOADSCENE;
eventOut->size = totalSize;
memcpy(eventOut + 1, filenameIn.c_str(), filenameSize);
return eventOut;
}
static char* loadEventUnpackFilename(eOgreLoadSceneEvent* eventIn)
{
const size_t filenameSize = eventIn->size -
sizeof(eq::ConfigEvent);
char * chars = (char*) malloc(filenameSize * sizeof(char));
memcpy(chars, eventIn + 1, filenameSize);
return chars;
}
(eOgreLoadSceneEvent just extends ConfigEvent, nothing extra is added)
After I send the packet, equalizer returns a "Abort: Unknown data type"
error and quits with a fatal error.
If I change the memcpy to :
memcpy(eventOut + sizeof(eq::ConfigEvent) + 1, filenameIn.c_str(),
filenameSize);
I get an access violation while writing, which seems extremely odd
considering that I malloc enough room...
Any ideas?
