Not a Cocoa topic but I am thinking the smart guys here can show me the error of my ways.

I do this:

BYTE *destination = (BYTE*)malloc(size);

... do stuff

free(destination);

The free() gives this error

malloc: *** error for object 0x21568580: Non-aligned pointer being freed (2)

How can I avoid this?


Did you perhaps change destination between malloc() and free()?


Yes I did as I was memcpy'ing to it. I had saved it in another variable and I now free that and problem goes away.

Thanks!
