Don't know why program keeps crashing

[Paul McKenzie]

I am reading in values from a file, and am not sure what's wrong with my code? My main issue is within the area in bold, can anyone tell me what's wrong?

First, post the entire call to the function. We have no idea if the parameter you passed in is bogus or not, and everything relies on that parameter being valid. Note that your loop is wholly dependent on what was passed, as you're checking for NULL and doing different things if intList is NULL or not.

Second, did you debug your code, or are you just running it and having it crash? If it is the latter, please use the debugger to debug the code. More than likely those pointers are invalid or uninitialized , and you're trying to write to an uninitialized pointer.

Bottom line is this -- you're asking us to figure out your logic. You wrote the program, so you had some sort of logic in mind, and translated what you had in mind to code. So does your program follow your logic? Where does the program go counter to what you expected? That's what debugging is all about.
