problems with strtok()

Right now I'm having a problem using the strtok() function, it's giving a segmentation fault for some reason and I don't know why.

[code]
curr = strtok(file[0],",");

while(1){
curr = strtok(NULL,",");
if(curr == NULL) break;
}

[\code]

file is a 2d array of characters, which is created with the fgets function as below:

Code:

while(fgets(c,1000,fptr) != NULL){
  strcpy(file[i++],c);
}

I'm able to get to the last entry in the string (I'm parsing a CSV file) however I get a seg fault after that. I have a feeling that it's because of the newline character at the end of the string using fgets. So I created a function to strip the new line character however my strtok() function no longer works.

My stripnewline function:

Code:

void stripnew(char * string){
	if(string[strlen(string) - 1] == '\n') string[strlen(string) - 1] = '\0';
}

If anybody could suggest a solution to this problem much would be appreciated.

Neither do I. Nothing about what you've posted is suspect. Well, except for strcpy. That may be the source of the problem. But it's impossible to actually diagnose with this small amount of code.

You really need to post a small, compilable example that demonstrates the problem. If your program is small enough, just dump it here, so I can see what your pointers are actually doing.

Here is my entire code:

Code:

void stripnew(char *);

int main(void){
	FILE * fptr;
	char c[1000];
	char ** file;
	int * deleteArray;
	int i;
	int numentries = 0;
	char * curr;
	int count;
	fptr = fopen(FILENAME,"r");
	if(fptr == NULL){
		printf("Unable to Open file anncomp.csv!\n");
		exit(1);
	}
	
	while(fgets(c,1000,fptr) != NULL){
		//printf("%s",c);
		numentries++;
	}
	printf("numentries = %d\n",numentries);
	file = (char **) malloc(sizeof(char*) * numentries);
	for(i = 0;i < numentries;i++) file[i] = (char *) malloc(sizeof(char) * 1000);
	
	rewind(fptr);
	i = 0;
	while(fgets(c,1000,fptr) != NULL){
	  strcpy(file[i++],c);
	}
	
	deleteArray = (int *)malloc(sizeof(int) * numentries);
	
	for(i=0;i<numentries;i++) deleteArray[i] = 0;
	//for(i=0;i<numentries;i++){
	//	printf("%s\n",file[i]);
	//}
		
	//for(i=0;i<numentries;i++){
		//stripnew(file[0]);
	    printf("%s",file[0]);
		curr = strtok(file[0],",");
		printf("%s",curr);
		
		count = 1;
		
		while(1){
		//    if(count == 44) break;
			curr = strtok(NULL,",");
			if(curr == NULL) break;
			printf("%s\n",curr);
		//	count++;
		}
		
		if(strcmp(curr,"") == 0) deleteArray[i] = 1;
	//}
	
	//for(i=0;i<numentries;i++) printf("%d",deleteArray[i]);
	
	
	return 0;
}

void stripnew(char * string){
	if(string[strlen(string) - 1] == '\n') string[strlen(string) - 1] = '\0';
}

Code:

if(strcmp(curr,"") == 0) deleteArray[i] = 1;

When you reach this line, curr is guaranteed to be NULL....
