将字符串从 Swift 传递到 C 返回到 Swift

Question

在 Swift 和 C 之间传递字符串时，我看到一些我不理解的行为。考虑以下 Swift 函数：

func demo()
{
    print("\n\n\n\n")                                                            // Line A

    let str = "thisisastring"
    let strptr = UnsafePointer<Int8>(str)        
    let strptr_cstring = String(cString: strptr)
    print("from swift: str = '\(str)'")
    print("from swift: strptr = \(strptr)")
    print("from swift: strptr.pointee = \(strptr.pointee)")
    print("from swift: strptr_cstring = '\(strptr_cstring)'")
    print("from swift: String(cString: strptr) = '\(String(cString: strptr))'")

    let ret_strptr = return_string(str)!                                        // Line B1
    //let ret_strptr = return_string(strptr)!                                   // Line B2
    //let ret_strptr = strptr                                                   // Line B3

    print("from swift: ret_strptr = \(ret_strptr) ")
    print("from swift: ret_strptr.pointee = \(ret_strptr.pointee)")
    let ret_strptr_cstring = String(cString: ret_strptr)
    print("from swift: ret_strptr_cstring = '\(ret_strptr_cstring)'")
    print("from swift: String(cString: ret_strptr) = '\(String(cString: ret_strptr))'")
}

C 函数：

const char *return_string(const char *c)
{
    printf("from c: got pointer %p = %s\n",c,c);
    return c;
}

如果我运行上面的 demo （所以只有行 B2 和 B3 被注释掉），我得到以下输出：

from swift: str = 'thisisastring'
from swift: strptr = 0x000000010021b8a0
from swift: strptr.pointee = 116
from swift: strptr_cstring = 'thisisastring'
from swift: String(cString: strptr) = 'thisisastring'
from c: got pointer 0x10021b9b0 = thisisastring
from swift: ret_strptr = 0x000000010021b9b0 
from swift: ret_strptr.pointee = 102
from swift: ret_strptr_cstring = '102m swift: ret_'
from swift: String(cString: ret_strptr) = 'P�!'

有两件事让我感到惊讶：1) C 代码获取指针 0x10021b9b0，而在 Swift 中，字符串存储在 0x000000010021b8a0。我原以为它们是一样的，但我想 Swift 在将字符串传递给 C 之前先复制它？ 2）更令人惊讶的是，虽然从 C 返回到 Swift 的指针是相同的位置，但内容不同；此外，最后两个打印语句产生不同的输出。

现在，如果我简单地注释掉 demo 中的 A 行，我会得到以下结果：

from swift: str = 'thisisastring'
from swift: strptr = 0x00000001003894b0
from swift: strptr.pointee = 0
from swift: strptr_cstring = 'S2' 
from swift: String(cString: strptr) = ''
from c: got pointer 0x100469640 = thisisastring
from swift: ret_strptr = 0x0000000100469640 
from swift: ret_strptr.pointee = 48
from swift: ret_strptr_cstring = '48000010046964'
from swift: String(cString: ret_strptr) = '48000010046964'

这令人惊讶，因为调用 C 函数之前的所有内容都不正确。

如果我然后注释掉 B1 行并取消注释 B3（只是删除对 C 的调用），我会得到预期的输出：

from swift: str = 'thisisastring'
from swift: strptr = 0x00000001004809b0
from swift: strptr.pointee = 116
from swift: strptr_cstring = 'thisisastring'
from swift: String(cString: strptr) = 'thisisastring'
from swift: ret_strptr = 0x00000001004809b0 
from swift: ret_strptr.pointee = 116
from swift: ret_strptr_cstring = 'thisisastring'
from swift: String(cString: ret_strptr) = 'thisisastring'

如果我运行它的 B2 行未注释（注释掉 A、B1 和 B3），我得到：

from swift: str = 'thisisastring'
from swift: strptr = 0x0000000100203550
from swift: strptr.pointee = 0
from swift: strptr_cstring = '2'
from swift: String(cString: strptr) = ''
from c: got pointer 0x100203550 = 
from swift: ret_strptr = 0x0000000100203550 
from swift: ret_strptr.pointee = 0
from swift: ret_strptr_cstring = ''
from swift: String(cString: ret_strptr) = ''

最后，如果我运行取消注释 A 行和 B2 行（B1 和 B3 注释掉），我会得到预期的结果：

from swift: str = 'thisisastring'
from swift: strptr = 0x00000001005533d0
from swift: strptr.pointee = 116
from swift: strptr_cstring = 'thisisastring'
from swift: String(cString: strptr) = 'thisisastring'
from c: got pointer 0x1005533d0 = thisisastring
from swift: ret_strptr = 0x00000001005533d0 
from swift: ret_strptr.pointee = 116
from swift: ret_strptr_cstring = 'thisisastring'
from swift: String(cString: ret_strptr) = 'thisisastring'

在我看来，对 C 的调用正在以一种不可预测的方式占用内存，但我在这里做错了什么吗？

运行在 macOS Sierra 上，Xcode 8.0，Swift 3.0.

如果您想要来自 NSString 的 C 字符串，请使用 cString or getCString。
