I was recently trying to track down some bugs in a program I am working on using valgrind, and one of the errors I got was:
==6866== Invalid write of size 4
==6866== at 0x40C9E2: superneuron::read(_IO_FILE*) (superneuron.cc:414)
the offending line # 414 reads
amplitudes__[points_read] = 0x0;
and amplitudes__ is defined earlier as
uint32_t * amplitudes__ = (uint32_t* ) amplitudes;
Now obviously a uint32_t is 4 bytes long, so this is the write size, but could someone tell me why it's invalid ?
