Heap corruption Detected Error
I am trying to de allocate the memory i created. However, in the destructor i am getting a Heap coruption Detected Error
In reference to: delete [] items;
I have also tried to comment out the other pointers and it still does it..
Code:
#pragma once
#include <ostream>
using namespace std;
class quack
{
public:
quack(int capacity);
~quack(void);
bool pushFront(const int n); // push an item onto the front
bool pushBack(const int n); // push an item onto the back
bool popFront(int& n); // pop an item off the front
bool popBack(int& n); // pop an item off the back
void rotate(int r); // "rotate" the stored items (see note below)
void reverse(void); // reverse the order of the stored items
int itemCount(void); // return the current number of stored items
private:
int front;
int back;
int maxsize;
int count;
struct item // definition of each item stored by the quack
{
int n;
};
item *items; // pointer to storage for the circular array
item *frontPtr;
item *backPtr;
item *reversePtr; // pointer to storage for the circular array
public:
friend ostream& operator<<(ostream& out, quack& q);
friend ostream& operator<<(ostream& out, quack::item& i);
};
Code:
quack::quack(int capacity): maxsize(capacity+1), front(capacity-2), frontPtr(NULL), backPtr(NULL),
back(0), count(0), items( new item[capacity])
{
frontPtr = new item;
backPtr = new item;
reversePtr = new item;
}
quack::~quack(void)
{
delete frontPtr;
delete backPtr;
delete reversePtr;
delete [] items; // causing crash - i have also tried delete items;
}
I will attach the error
