How can I use dynamic arrays in Polyspace 5.1 (R2008a)?

1 view (last 30 days)
Dynamic arrays are possible in C with compilers supporting the C99 standard.
PolySpace supports only C90 so an analysis using this construct will fail with a compilation error.

There is no way to make PolySpace accept dynamic arrays without modifying the source code that is being analyzed.
Please consider the following:
Replace this syntax
void foo(unsigned char a)
{
char b[a];
}
with this
void foo(unsigned char a)
{
#ifndef POLYSPACE
char b[a];
#else
char *b = (char *) malloc(sizeof(char) * a);
#endif
}
