C++ program running smoothly on VS but not on Linux Mint - c++

For some reason when i run my C++ program on VS it compile and run smoothly and when i'm trying to run it on Linux Mint terminal it does compile without any errors but i'm not getting any feedback/printing to the terminal...it's just stuck - so i can't even guess where the problem is. any suggestions?
I'm really a noob when it comes to Linux...
my program contains 2 cpp class file, 2 header files (each for one class) and a main.cpp file which i'm trying to run like this:
g++ *.cpp -o myprog
./myprog
it does create a myprog file - but when i run it nothing happens, like i said.
my code:

btw - i'll be happy if you could also check if my "includes" was done correctly cause i couldn't figure it out so easily...
Thanks :)

Update:
I ran your code through AppVerifier. And it didn't initially find anything until I tried different variations of Debug/Release x86/x64 builds. And one point I got it to crash in Windows. And then it stopped reproing the crash. Then I changed all your initial tree->insert statements to take a rand() value instead of a fixed value, I could get it to crash 100% of the time in Windows. I'm not sure if I event needed AppVerifier, but I left it on. That's when I noticed your LinkedList destructor was attempting to delete a pointer at 0xcccccccc, which is uninitialized memory in a debug build.
Bottom line, here is your bug:
Your LinkedList copy constructor is not initializing the head pointer to NULL
Also, you have two copy constructors. One that takes a non-const reference and is public. And another one (with slightly different behavior) that takes a const reference, but is private.
You just want a single copy constructor that is both public and takes a const reference.
Here's the fix. Let this be the public constructor:
LinkedList::LinkedList(const LinkedList& other) {
length = 0;
head = NULL; // YOU FORGOT THIS LINE
Node* tmp = other.head;
while (tmp != NULL)
{
this->addToTail(tmp->data);
tmp = tmp->next;
}
length = other.length;
}
And then remove the other instance of the LinkedList copy constructor.
Another thing that looks suspicious. Your btree constructor that takes a linked list is corrupting your list. It's also forgetting to initialize the object before attempting the first insert.
btree::btree(LinkedList &list)
{
while (list.head != NULL)
{
insert(list.head->data);
list.head = list.head->next;
}
}
This is completely wrong. When you construct the btree from the list (being passed via reference), the constructor will modify the passed in LinkedList instance. When this constructor returns, the list instance will be returned to the call with a null head pointer, but a non-zero length member when the function returns.. And your LinkedList destructor will not be able to recurse the tree to free the memory. So you have both a memory leak and an invalid object state.
Do this instead.
btree::btree(const LinkedList &list)
{
root = NULL;
isMirrored = false;
Node* tmp = list.head;
while (tmp != NULL)
{
insert(tmp->data);
tmp = tmp->next;
}
}
It's also better to use initializer lists with constructors:
btree::btree(const LinkedList &list) :
root(NULL),
isMirrored(false)
{
...
}
You are welcome :)
old stuff:
Your cout statements are missing an end-of-line marker (which flushes the output):
Instead of statements like this:
cout << *tree;
Do this:
cout << *tree << endl;
But that's not your issue. You have a crash in your program:
[ec2-user#ip-172-31-10-108 stackover]$ g++ main.cpp btree.cpp LinkedList.cpp
[ec2-user#ip-172-31-10-108 stackover]$ ./a.out

Looks like we have a bug that results in a crash. Let's compile with a debug build and analyze:

Short answer: it looks like you got some additional debugging to do around line 133 of btree.cpp. The value of tmp has a value of 0x21 - which is likely not a legitimate pointer value.

C++ - How to subtract two Linked Lists from one another?

I am trying to make a way to take two Linked List objects (doubly-linked), say LL1 and LL2, and remove the 'overlapping' elements within LL1 which also appear in LL2.
So for example if:
LL1 = {1,2,3};
LL2 = {9,2,8};
I want an output of:
LL1 = {1,3};
I am trying to do this via overloading the '-=' operator to work with two linked list objects. It compiles fine, but I'm getting a 'segmentation fault (core dumped)' error during runtime at the '-=' operator call. Not sure why. Below is my code. Any help would be appreciated, thankyou kindly.

You've included way too much code. The general ask on this site is to provide a minimal reproducible example.
Problems
I have no idea why you have a member variable named current. It often points to deleted memory.
You need to implement the "rule of three" or the "rule of five" on your LinkedList class. If you copy the LinkedList, and then modify it, you will have dangling pointers.
LinkedList a;
LinkedList b = a;
a.RemoveHead();
// b.head is now pointing to deleted memory.
LinkedList::removeByNode(Node* c) does not update the head and tail member variables if the removed node was the head or tail respectively.
Your operator-= uses temp1 after it has been deleted.
There are likely more issues.

c++ single linked list segmentation fault t

I am trying to write a code making a single linked list. I want to put all my array elements into each node and link them. But when I run my code I keep getting the segmentation fault error. I do not get why I am getting this error.
Can anybody help?? Thanks!!
linked_list_main.cc
#include <iostream>
#include "linked_list.h"
int main() {
int array[5];
List<int> list(array, 5);
std::cout << list;
return 0;
}
template <class T>
class Node {
public:
T data;
Node<T>* next;
};
This is my linked_list.h file.
class List {
private:
Node<T> *head;
public:
List() : head(NULL) {};
~List() {
Node<T>* ptr;
for(ptr = head; ptr == NULL; ptr = head->next)
delete ptr;
}
List(T* arr, int n_nodes){
Node<T>* tmp = head;
for(int i = 0; i < n_nodes; i++ ) {
Node<T>* node = new Node<T>;
node->data = arr[i];
if(tmp != NULL) {
node->next = tmp;
tmp = node;
}
}
}
friend std::ostream& operator<<(std::ostream& out, List<T>& rhs) {
Node<T>* cur = rhs.head;
while(cur != NULL) {
if(cur->next == NULL)
out << cur->data << " ";
else
out << cur->data << ", ";
cur = cur->next;
}
}
};
You need to change this
List(T* arr, int n_nodes){
Node<T>* tmp = head;
...
}
to this
List(T* arr, int n_nodes){
Node<T>* tmp = NULL;
...
head = tmp;
}
Pointers are tricky, learn to use a debugger. Will be the best hour you've ever spent when learning how to program.

Threads on xcode while compiling the c++ code

so I was trying to build this project on deque using the doubly linked list. but when I build it. it says build but gives threads and doesn't give the output as required.
I have re-implemented the major problem(copy constructor) and all the functions again and again but then it still gives me new threads every time.
this is the header file.

thanks in advance.
Your code has many problems..
Your Node constructor doesn't delegate properly..
Node::Node()
{
previous = nullptr;
next = nullptr;
data = 0;
}
Node::Node(const int &x)
{
Node(); //Creates a temporary node that gets destroyed immediately..
data = x;
}
It's much simpler if you change it to:
Node::Node() : Node(0) //Delegating constructor.
{
}
Node::Node(const int &x) : previous(nullptr), next(nullptr), data(x)
{
}
This point isn't really a problem, but worth mentioning.. You keep setting the Node pointers to nullptr right after construction. This is not necessary because your constructor already does that..
Node* temp = new Node(x);
temp->next = nullptr; //Not needed anymore with the above fixes.
temp->previous = nullptr; //Not needed anymore with the above fixes.
You never initialize your variables in the copy constructor..
In your constructor, you have (I changed it, but it has the same meaning):
Deque::Deque() : front(nullptr), rear(nullptr)
{
}
But in your copy constructor, you have:
Deque::Deque(const Deque &d)
{
//Other code here.. You never initialized front and rear to nullptr..
}
You never set front and rear to nullptr so empty() returns false since they are a "random" uninitialized value.. Then in insertBack you go on to access this and boom.. Access Violation.
To fix it, you do:
Deque::Deque(const Deque &d) : front(nullptr), rear(nullptr)
{
//Other code here..
}
Next issue is that your copy assignment operator is calling the destructor!
Deque& Deque::operator=(const Deque &d)
{
if (this == &d)
return *this;
else
{
this->~Deque() //YOU CANNOT DO THIS.. Create a private member function for cleaning up.. Then call that function in your destructor and call that function here.. You cannot invoke the destructor like this.
}
//....
}

Can't assign to object in linked list

Head and tail are getting populated, and print out the values, but nodePtr stays empty for some reason. When I debug in VS2015, head and tail number is getting populated, while field this stays empty
Here's Linked_List

You're missing a fundamental concept here. nodePtr is not some magical node that knows about all your other nodes, or knows about linked lists, or can be used to print all their numbers.
When you do this:
out << list.nodePtr->number << endl;
All you are doing is outputting the value that you initialized when you allocated a new Node and stored a pointer in nodePtr:
nodePtr = new Node();
That called the default constructor for Node which set nodePtr->number to zero. (side-note, you initialized it to NULL, not 0 -- you should not mix integer types with pointer types, so change it to initialize the value to 0).
Its value stays 0 because you never modify it. And nodePtr always points at that single node because you never modified nodePtr.
What you're actually wanting to do is print out your list. Let me suggest the normal way to do this, by starting at head and following the node linkages:
std::ostream & operator<<(std::ostream & out, const LinkedList & list)
{
for( Node *node = list.head; node != nullptr; node = node->next )
{
out << node->number << std::endl;
}
return out;
}
And finally, I suggest you remove nodePtr from your class completely.
You only use nodePtr in the constructor, you never change it's values.

I have prototyped a function but my class still says it is not a member?

I am making a function that removes the head node of a linked list and makes it the head of another linked list. I prototyped a function called moveNode in the outerclass called LinkedList, and I defined the function later on in my code. However, my compiler gives me error messages saying "class LinkedList::Node is private" and "LinkedList::Node* LinkedList:head is private. I don't understand what I need to do to fix it.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
class LinkedList
{
public:
LinkedList() { head = NULL; } // default constructor
friend ostream& operator<<( ostream& os, const LinkedList &ll );
void insertHead( int item ); // insert at the head of the list
int count(int searchFor, const LinkedList &ll);
void moveNode(LinkedList &other, LinkedList &currentList);
private:
class Node // inner class for a linked list node
{
public:
Node( int item, Node *n );
int data; // the data item in a node
Node *next; // a pointer to the next node in the list
};
Node *head; // the head of the list
};
LinkedList::Node::Node(int item, Node *n)
{
data = item;
next = n;
}
ostream& operator<<(ostream& os, const LinkedList &ll)
{
LinkedList::Node *current;
for(current = ll.head; current != NULL; current = current->next)
{
os << current->data << " ";
}
}
int LinkedList::count(int searchFor, const LinkedList &ll)
{
LinkedList::Node *current;
current = ll.head;
int howmanytimes = 0;
while(current != NULL){
if(current->data == searchFor)
{
howmanytimes++;
}
}
cout << searchFor << " appears in " << ll << " | " << howmanytimes << "time(s)" << endl;
}
void moveNode(LinkedList &other, LinkedList &currentList)
{
LinkedList::Node *current = other.head;
if(current!=NULL)
{
current->next = currentList.head;
}
}
void LinkedList::insertHead(int item)
{
head = new Node(item, head);
}
You are not qualifying the class name in the moveNode() implementation:
// note the LinkedList::
void LinkedList::moveNode(LinkedList &other, LinkedList &currentList)
{
LinkedList::Node *current = other.head;
if(current!=NULL)
{
current->next = currentList.head;
}
}
That being said, this implementation does not match your description:
a function that removes the head node of a linked list and makes it the head of another linked list
An implementation that actually does what that says would look something more like this:
void LinkedList::moveNode(LinkedList &other, LinkedList &currentList)
{
LinkedList::Node *current = other.head;
if (current != NULL)
{
other.head = current->next;
current->next = currentList.head;
currentList.head = current;
}
}
That being said, this method should be renamed to something like moveHead() instead. And since it is not accessing anything via the this pointer, it could even be declared static. Otherwise, I would suggest re-implementing it to remove the currentList parameter at least, eg:
void LinkedList::moveHead(LinkedList &other)
{
LinkedList::Node *newhead = other.head;
if (newhead != NULL)
{
other.head = newhead->next;
newhead->next = this->head;
this->head = newhead;
}
}
