C/C++ :: Warning / Assignment From Incompatible Pointer Type
Apr 17, 2014
I'm working on a program and everything works except for the follow function:
void swapHex(int x, int byte1, int byte2) {
unsigned char *b1, *b2, tmpc;
printf("%d in hex is %x
", x, x);
printf("swapping byte %d with byte %d
", byte1, byte2);
[Code] ....
I get the following errors when compiling:
In function "swapHex":
warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type
warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type

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);

So for a project, my professor sent out two pages of code containing functions to read a text file (since we do not know how to write this on our own yet). I've got the code working on Orwell IDE and it gives me 2 warnings saying
"Passing argument 1 of 'readFromFile' from incompatible pointer type"
"Passing argument 2 of 'option2Print' makes integer from pointer without a cast"
The Orwell IDE seems to just bypass these warnings and compiles the code correctly. However, when I transferred my files over to my desktop using BloodShed (what the professor uses), instead of getting a warning I get an error and the code won't compile.
I assume it will not compile on his computer either since he uses the BloodShed IDE.
I don't know how to put the code directly into the text neatly, so a attached a .zip file with my code. The "storms.txt" file is also included. (the file that will be read).

I am working on a double linked list and inside of my function to insert a node, I am getting an error of "Incompatible types in assignment". Here is my function code. Line 55 is where I am receiving the error.
Code:

I have a function that I want to exit gracefully when an "error" occurs in an input file. My function declaration is:
Code: BSTnode *buildTree(FILE *fp)
The few lines that are causing the problems are:
Code: if(regcomp(®ex, to_find, REG_EXTENDED | REG_NEWLINE) != 0) {
fprintf(stderr, "Failed to compile regex '%s'
", to_find);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
I know that if I just use "return" by itself the warning goes away but fails to exit when the error occurs. I also believe this may not be the correct use of stderr. But I need the program to exit when an error has occurred.

I am wondering why return type for an assignment operator cant be a void or int? Cant I write assignment operator for student class like this as we do nothing with returned value?
Student {
char name[20];
int marks;
public:
student(char*name,int marks)

when i compile the following program i get a compiler warning, but i don't understand why. for me the code seems to be all right and does legitimate this warning. so here is the code
// multiplication.c
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <ctype.h>
#include "crypto.h"
#define PROGNAME "multiplication"
void usage();
int isnumaber(char* str);

I have a class with member functions and a pointer like this:
Code:
class MyClass{
private:
typedef void(MyClass::*memFnPtr_t) ();
public:
memFnPtr_t fnptr;
void fn1();
void fn2();
};
Now in a regular function I create an instance of the class and try to assign the pointer:
Code:
MyClass mc;
mc.fnptr = &mc.fn1;
The compiler does not like it and suggests this instead:
Code:
mc.fnptr = &MyClass::fn1;
This seems to work but what if I have two instances of the class:
Code:
MyClass mc1, mc2;
How does the compiler know to distinguish between
Code:
mc1.fn1
and
Code:
mc2.fn1
when the assignment now looks identical:
Code:
mc1.fnptr = &MyClass::fn1;
mc2.fnptr = &MyClass::fn1;

The log file gives me: In function ‘memFileAlloc’ assignment makes pointer from integer without a cast..When compiling the drivers for the Matrox card in the DL580. The offending code is:
STACK_LINKAGE MEMHANDLE memFileAlloc(
UINT32 dwSize,
const char* pszFileName,
int iLine) {
void* pvChunk;
#if MEMORY_STATS
[code]...
I think the offending line is:
pvChunk = ClientMemAlloc(dwSize + sizeof(UINT32), NULL)
because that's what the log file tells me.
The system is a 16 core HP DL580 G4 with 8g RAM, RAID 0, Mandrivalinux 11.0 and the display is a Matrox Parhelia 256PCIx.

i am trying to create the assignment operator for a class that uses a pointer for it's private variable. The error is saying expected constructor, deconstructor, or type conversion before "operator. (which is the assignment operator. I have tried everything i could think of or find online and nothing has worked. below is the code for the assignment operator in the .h file and the .cpp file.
//Assignment constructor
indexList &operator=(const indexList <T> &rhs);
template <class T>
indexList<T>::indexList operator=(const indexList <T> &rhs) {
if(this != &rhs) {
numberOfElements = rhs.numberOfElements;

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 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.

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));

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)

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;
