char *strdup( const char *src );
(since C23)Returns a pointer to a null-terminated byte string, which is a duplicate of the string pointed to by src
. The space for the new string is obtained as if the malloc was invoked. The returned pointer must be passed to free to avoid a memory leak.
If an error occurs, a null pointer is returned and errno might be set.
[edit] Parameters src - pointer to the null-terminated byte string to duplicate [edit] Return valueA pointer to the newly allocated string, or a null pointer if an error occurred.
[edit] NotesThe function is identical to the POSIX strdup.
[edit] Example#include <string.h> #include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> int main(void) { const char *s1 = "Duplicate me!"; char *s2 = strdup(s1); printf("s2 = \"%s\"\n", s2); free(s2); }
