strlen返回值为size_t引起的bug

strlen函数返回值为size_t类型,也就是unsigned int类型, 无符号数,永远大于零

看例子

  1 #include <stdio.h>
  2 #include <string.h>
  3 int main()
  4 {
  5         char *buf_a = "abcdefg";
  6         char *buf_b = "aaaaaaaaaa";
  7         printf("buf_a = %d\n", strlen(buf_a));
  8         printf("buf_b = %d\n", strlen(buf_b));
  9 
 10         printf("buf_a - buf_b = %d\n", strlen(buf_a) - strlen(buf_b));
 11         int len = strlen(buf_a) - strlen(buf_b);
 12         printf("%d\n", len);
 13         if(len > 0)
 14         {
 15                 printf("adf\n");
 16         }
 17         if(strlen(buf_a) - strlen(buf_b) > 0)
 18         {
 19                 printf("adfadf\n");
 20         }
 21         return 0;
 22 }


看结果

buf_a = 7
buf_b = 10
buf_a - buf_b = -3
-3
adfadf

 

千万不要像17行这么判断,原因你懂的,要将其转换为有符号的形式,如11行所示
