I have a program that is crashing within strtod(). I found it unusual
that it would crash during a library function call. Maybe you somebody
out there can shed some light on this.
I'm writing a Forth compiler, and was testing it on this script:
1 if
'1 == 1' $.
'Cool' $.
then
0 if
'Uh oh' $.
then
Unfortunately, it crashes.
I ran gdb on it, and after the crash got a stack frame back-trace.
The result was:
Program received signal SIGFPE, Arithmetic exception.
0x25df7 in strtod ()
(gdb) bt
#0 0x25df7 in strtod ()
#1 0x18f9 in is_literal (lexema=0x7f111 "$.") at forth.c:62
#2 0x2285 in forth (
tp=0x7f114 " 'Cool' $. then 0 if 'Uh oh' $. then ")
at forth.c:433
#3 0x1738 in main ()
#4 0x253e6 in __crt1_startup ()
(gdb)
Which means it crashed on the call strtod("$.", &endp);
I have no idea why.
I am using gcc version 2.7.2.1
Thanks for your help,
Please respond by e-mail as well if possible,
