Thread: seg fault

Hi

I am writing classes for a card game and trying to use vector for my deck. However when i run the program, it spites out seg fault.

The place where seg fault appears is in this function

Code:

void CardItem::Add(const vector<Card>& addon, unsigned int pos){
	Require(pos < addon.size());
	vector<Card>::iterator position = subdeck.begin()+pos;
	cout << endl << "Add(const vector<Card>& addon, int pos) " << endl;
	for(unsigned int i = 0; i < addon.size(); ++i){
		cout << i << "   val " << addon[i].getVal() << "   suit " << addon[i].getSuit() << endl;
		subdeck.push_back(addon[i]);
		subdeck.insert(position+i, subdeck.back());
		subdeck.pop_back();
	}
}

before subdeck.push_back...., the cout right above the push_back is fine thru.

The class of CardItem looks something like this

Code:

class CardItem{
	public:
		CardItem(){};
		virtual ~CardItem(){};
		
		virtual void Shuffle(int flag);
		virtual void Sort(int flag);
		vector<Card>* Remove(const unsigned int start, const unsigned int end);
		vector<Card>* Remove(const val_t val, const suit_t suit);
		void Add(const vector<Card>& addon, unsigned int pos);
		void Add(const val_t val, const suit_t suit);
		int getNumCards() const {return subdeck.size();}
	protected:
		vector<Card> subdeck;
};


class Hand:public CardItem{
	public:
		Hand(){};
		virtual ~Hand(){};
		
		virtual void Sort(int flag);
	private:
		vector<Card> putDown;
};

class BaseDeck:public CardItem{
	public:
		BaseDeck(){};
		virtual ~BaseDeck(){};
		
		virtual int CreateBase(const val_t start, const val_t end, const suit_t suit_start, const suit_t suit_end);
	private:
};

The function is called in the following code

Code:

void CardGame::Deal(unsigned int player){
	vector<Card> *temp;
	temp = baseDeck.Remove(1,1);
	players[player].Add(*temp, 0);
	delete temp;
}

I am not sure whether this is the right way to pass the content of a vector around, but it is the only way that I can think of.

I would really appreciate if someone can give me some idea on the seg fault

Cheers
