是否有任何理由在删除之前检查 NULL 指针?
我经常看到遗留代码在删除指针之前检查NULL
,类似于,
I often see legacy code checking for NULL
before deleting a pointer, similar to,
if (NULL != pSomeObject)
{
delete pSomeObject;
pSomeObject = NULL;
}
是否有任何理由在删除之前检查 NULL
指针?之后将指针设置为NULL
的原因是什么?
Is there any reason to checking for a NULL
pointer before deleting it? What is the reason for setting the pointer to NULL
afterwards?
推荐答案
删除空指针是完全安全"的;它实际上相当于一个空操作.
It's perfectly "safe" to delete a null pointer; it effectively amounts to a no-op.
您可能希望在删除之前检查 null 的原因是尝试删除空指针可能表明您的程序中存在错误.
The reason you might want to check for null before you delete is that trying to delete a null pointer could indicate a bug in your program.

注意:如果重载删除操作符,删除NULL
NOTE: if you overload the delete operator, it may no longer be "safe" to delete NULL
