Dear All,
I am puzzled why splint is giving warning
Following line of code is used in program
temp_file = (char *)calloc(10, sizeof(char))
Here temp_file is static char *temp_file;
And after this line, check is used like
if (temp_file==NULL)
{
return 1;
}
In program memory allocation (calloc) to temp_file is used only one time
But splint is showing the following warning
Only storage assigned to unqualified static:
temp_file = (char *)calloc(10, sizeof(char))
The only reference to this storage is transferred to another reference
(e.g.,
by returning it) that does not have the only annotation. This may lead
to a
memory leak, since the new reference is not necessarily released. (Use
-onlytrans to inhibit warning)
Pleas help me understanding why this warning is coming how to solve this
without using flag onlytrans
Thanks and Regards
Vishal Bayskar
