C:链表和 free() - 示例错误?

C: Linked list and free() - Mistake in example?

学习 Prata 的《C Primer Plus》第 6 版时,我发现了清单 17.2 的链表示例,该示例复制在本文下方。我对他再次释放内存的部分感到困惑。他不是在他的例子中释放指向下一个列表的指针吗?最后,他将current设置为head,使current指向第一个结构体的起始内存地址。然后他释放 current 并设置 current=current->next,但是 current->next 不应该再包含任何地址,因为 current 被释放了? 运行 通过 CodeBlocks 的程序工作正常,但在 CodeBlocks 中调试 free() while 循环时,出现段错误。 我相信我的理解是正确的,程序有问题,对吧? 谢谢你。

    else
        printf ("Here is the movie list:\n");
    current = head;
    while (current != NULL)
    {
        printf("Movie: %s Rating: %d\n",
               current->title, current->rating);
        current = current->next;
    }
    /* Program done, so free allocated memory */
    current = head;
    while (current != NULL)
    {
        free(current);
        current = current->next;
    }
    printf("Bye!\n");
    return 0;

char * s_gets(char * st, int n)

    char * ret_val;
    char * find;
    ret_val = fgets(st, n, stdin);
    if (ret_val)
    {
        find = strchr(st, '\n'); // look for newline
        if (find) // if the address is not NULL,
            *find = '[=10=]'; // place a null character there
        else
            while (getchar() != '\n')
                continue; // dispose of rest of line
    }
    return ret_val;
}

current = head;
while (current != NULL)
{
    free(current);
    current = current->next;
}

but current->next shouldn't contain any address anymore because current is freed?

你的假设是正确的,你正在尝试访问一个已经删除的节点,这就是你的代码段错误的原因,而是使用一个临时节点,在这种情况下你可以重用 head:

current = head;
while (current != NULL)
{
    head = current->next;
    free(current);
    current = head;
}

Running the program via CodeBlocks works fine ...

纯属幸运...
