C/C++ :: Error - Cannot Convert To A Pointer Type
Apr 3, 2015
I have attached the source code I am writing. I have been getting the two following errors. I know it's something to do with the pointer casting.
udp-server.c:174:3: error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer nor vector
udp-server.c:165:3: error: cannot convert to a pointer type
The file is attached here.

I've been writing the math functions for a 3d game and tried compiling it at about 30 functions in. I get this error related to my pointers to my structures. it affects almost everything in all my functions (as youll see by looking at how i do the math in the function below). The compiler gives me the error
"error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type"
on all my struct Type4D pointers but referencing the values in my struct TypeMatrix4X4 using pointers seems to work fine i think (it doesn't seem to complian explicitly about it. so here is the important code...
one example function
Code:
struct Type4D *MatVecMult4X4RtoL(struct TypeMatrix4X4 *mat, struct Type4D *vec) {
struct Type4D *dest = (struct Type4D *) malloc(sizeof(struct Type4D));
[Code]....

I am having trouble with this program I get the error dereferencing pointer to incomplete type in the populate function I am using BloodShed's Dev C++ compiler v4.9.9.2 I copied this program out of a book because I was having a problem with a linked list in a similar program. I think there is a problem with the compiler not supporting these types of pointer's in a function.
#include <stdio.h>
struct tel_typ {
char name[25];
char phone_no[15];
struct tel_typ *nextaddr;
[code].....

I am getting this error:
drivers/media/video/mxc/capture/gt2005.c:2256:62: error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type
I am at a loss trying to figure this out. Here it is:
case Sensor_Flash:
{
struct i2c_client *client = to_i2c_client(to_soc_camera_control(icd));
struct sensor *sensor = to_sensor(client);
if (sensor->sensor_io_request && sensor->sensor_io_request->sensor_ioctrl) {
sensor->sensor_io_request->sensor_ioctrl(icd->pdev,Cam_Flash, on);
if(on){
Lines 6 and 7 are giving me the same error. What am I doing wrong?

Below is my code snippet.I'm getting "Error:initialization from incompatible pointer type" error on line 'int *q = status;'.
Obviously, I'm missing something but has no clue...:(
void findwalls(int *p,int y,int x){
int status[y_count][x_count][4];
int *q = status;
for(int i = 0;i < (y_count * x_count * 4);i++)
*(q + i) = *(p + i);

Code:
template<class T>
class Convert {
T data;
public:
Convert(const T& tData = T()) : data(tData)
[Code] ....
Why do we use operator? Is float and double function names below?
Code:
Convert<int>::operator<float> float();
Convert<int>::operator<double> double();

I have a function:
const void insertStuff(const void *key, const int value){
// I want to convert the void pointer into one
// of three types of pointers(int, string, or double)
switch(value){
case 0:
int *intPtr = key;
[Code] .....
But this causes an error of: "crosses initialization of int*intPtr"
What's the correct way of implementing this?

I have an xml file with an IM node, i serialize it and get the property like:
public ImAddressDictionary ImAddresses { get; set; }
And then set the value like this:
contact.ImAddresses[ImAddressKey.ImAddress1] = sImAddresses; where the sImAddresses is a string.
I then get this error:
cannot convert from 'Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ImAddressDictionary' to 'string'

Im trying to Get the ID column (which is int type) from items selected from a checkboxlist. The checkboxist is populated by the ID column (UserID). I want to get all the UserID values from the options selected in the checkboxlist and populate a table in sql server with the selected UserID's once a button is clicked.
Heres what I have at the moment...
foreach (ListItem oItem in UserChkList.Items) {
if (oItem.Selected) {
//Populate
//---------
UserProject = new ob_UserProject();

This is the line thats not functioning as i want it too. Returns an error 'Cannot implicitly convert type 'string' to 'int

So I query out data from multiple tables and I put it as anonymous type. But since I need to get the remove function going, my datagridview has to get datasource from a bindinglist, not just a list. What could I do from this situation? I already checked: [URL] but intellisense doesn't pick up the .ToBindingList() function for my query.

My intent was to convert the string variable for the year to an integer data type. The code compiles but now cannot run on my system. I'm not sure what's going as to what the program is displaying.
Objective: Prompt the user for two years. Print all Comedy movies that were released between those two years.
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>
#include <cctype>
using namespace std;
struct Movie {
string name;

I have pointer object and i have to assign to another variable ( new object ). But if i change any value in new object should not reflect in old object. I did in the below way, it changes the value.
class Test {
public:
int num;
};
Test* obj;
obj.num=1;
Test obj_n=*obj;
obj_n.num=2;
Now both object's num have value as 2;
i.e
obj.num // has 2
obj_n.num // has 2
Actually my expected result is:
obj.num - should have value 1
obj_n.num - should have value 2
My actual scenario is different where Test obj is pointer object, so obj should be pointer object. i have given sample scenario.

Q. Consider the following C declaration.
int x[10], y,z;
What kind of error does following statement contain?
z == x +y;
a. Syntax error
b. Semantic error
c. logical error
d. All of the above
According to me it should be option a, but I am confused, how to get confirm answer with explanation.

I need to create the following brain damaging abomination:
I need a function pointer type to a function that has an argument of the same function pointer type and returns the same function pointer type.
The purpose is to enable a type of subroutine threading scheme for a small application specific scripting language. The question could just as well have been posted to the C forum.
This syntax works, but Payload is a generic type which I can coerce into the right pointer type via a cast. This is ugly IMHO. I could also hide it as a pointer in the FlipState class since I've forward declared this.
But this is an extra indirection in a performance critical part of the code, and also ugly.
Code:
class FlipState ;
typedef PayLoad (*FuncPtr) (FlipState *fs, PayLoad P) ; This syntax blows chunks using gcc on the other hand. Code: class FlipState ;
typedef FuncPtr (*FuncPtr) (FlipState *fs, FuncPtr P) ;
[Code] .....
This is hardly surprising. The compiler could not possibly understand what I was defining in the typedef. I think what I need is some kind of way to forward declare a function pointer type and then redefine it properly.
Is such a think even possible or am I just SOL? This one is mind boggling. We know how to do this with classes or other complex data types, but the syntax eludes me for both C++ and C.

I came across some code and it's not clear why it is casting an unsigned char * to another pointer type only to free it right after. Here are the relevant structures:
Code:
struct _Edje_Message {
Edje *edje;
Edje_Queue queue;
Edje_Message_Type type;
int id;
unsigned char *msg;
[Code] .....
As you can see, _Edge_Message has a *msg field, but in the function below, they cast it to the other two structure types inside the case blocks of the switch statement only to free it. What is the point or advantage of doing this?
Code:
void
_edje_message_free(Edje_Message *em) {
if (em->msg) {
int i;
switch (em->type) {
[Code] ......

I have an array of char pointers:
Code: char *input_args[MAX_ARGS];
And I have this function:
Code: BOOL parseArgs(char **input_args[], input arg_num);
I am trying to pass a pointer to this char pointer array like this:
Code: parseArgs(&input_args, args_num);
But the compiler is complaining:
Code: warning: passing argument 1 of 'parseArgs' from incompatible pointer type ...
note: expected 'char ***' but argument is of type 'char * (*)[20]'
Tried a bunch of stuff but nothing works.

This is a c++ Code. I want to read a address to a pointer. When I try to do so it generates an error. I did is >> obj1[0].contentAdress; in main.
struct node3{
node3(){
nextContent = NULL;
for (int i = 0; i<1020; i++)
content[i] = '';
[code]...
no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'node3 *' (or there is no acceptable conversion)
