C++ :: Passing Array Of Pointers From A Function To Main
Nov 21, 2014
I have a a group of text files that are used as input into a program. Another very similar program needs the same data in a different input format. I am writing a program that will read in each line of data and parse it. I have successfully written the program in main() such that it will read until the end of file. However, I am trying to re-write the program such that the algorithm is in an external function and will read one line at a time and then pass all of the character strings to the main program. The program will not compile and I am positive it has to do with an incorrect use of arrays in passing the variable "token". I am attaching a copy of the main program and the function.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <cstring>
#include <stdio.h>
void Line_Parse(std::ifstream&,std::ostream&,const char* token);
int main(int argc, const char * argv[]) {

i would like to know if i need to dynamically allocate a string in main before passing it to a function that i have created.
in that function i just read the string and do not change any chat in it.

This code is for a program that allows you to play a guessing game or arithmetic game and shows your total score from both as you go along. The program works fine the only problem I'm having is with the score. Is there a way to call the score value from the outside function into main?
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <time.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
//prototype functions
void menu();
[Code] .....
So trying to pass the value of score from the outer function int guessGame() into the score print statement in choice 3 of the main function? Oh and the "17 -turn_count" was just part of the requirements of the assignment.

I have the main() - which has entries like
Code:
main() {
int ss, ret, z;
float yy;
ret = function1(&yy, &ss, &z);
//int function1(flat *cc, int *dd, int *k) - is it correct?
[Code]...

I am getting a few compile errors for what might be a simple thing to do. I am opening a file in main, passing that pointer to a function and checking the contents of that file with a regex before I pass it on to build a BST. I am getting the following compile errors, what is wrong. Here are the errors:
Code:
gcc main.c fileCheck.c -o tree
main.c: In function `fileCheck':
main.c:19: error: syntax error before "FILE"
fileCheck.c: In function `fileCheck':
[Code] .....
Fatal error: Command failed for target `tree' Here is the two files and header that seem to be causing me the problems.
main.c
Code:
#include "main.h"
//#include "node.h"
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
FILE *fp;
if (argc > 2)
[Code] ....
And the header file.
main.h
Code:
#ifndef MAIN_H
#define MAIN_H
#ifdef __cplusplus
extern "C" {
#endif

If f1 and f2 are two user defined functions.
main(){
int *p;
f1(&p)
}
f1(**p){
f2(&p);//
If I've to pass the pointer by reference again in another function, will I've to do something like this?
}
f2(***p){
**p = NULL;
}

Background: I'm writing a convolutional encoder (and decoder, eventually) for a microprocessor (PIC24), for which I'm using structs and pointers to move from state to state. So far as I'm aware, everything I'm using in the PIC involves nothing other than ANSI C.
I have a little experience with structures, having written a linked-list program for a class a couple years back, but nothing since and never used structure arrays. I have the feeling I'm missing something basic here, which is what's so frustrating. The most confusing error (and I suspect the root of most of them) is the 'state undeclared', which I just can't figure.
The errors I'm getting are:
encoder.c:11: warning: 'struct memstate' declared inside parameter list
encoder.c:11: warning: its scope is only this definition or declaration, which is probably not what you want
encoder.c: In function 'state_init':
encoder.c:22: error: two or more data types in declaration specifiers
encoder.c:25: error: 'state' undeclared (first use in this function)
encoder.c:25: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
[Code]....
Code:
Code: //Includes
#include <stdlib.h>
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------
//Creates state machine and passes back pointer to 00 state
void state_init(struct memstate* startpoint)
{
extern struct memstate
{
char output0; //output if next input is 0
[code]...
NB: I'm aware that at the moment, this code will do nothing except spin round that do-while loop. Once it's actually compiling I'll drop in some simple button-based test code so it'll check for the correct output.

I'm writing code to create an array of integer and let user input choice to display, replace, add new element, etc.I created a header file in the header file there's a function:
Code:
int display_one_element(int* array, int num_of_elements, int position) {
if(num_of_elements < position || position < 0) {
printf("Position out of bound.
");
return 1;
}
return array[position-1];
}
in main I write a function call:
Code:
display_one_element(array, *p_num_elements, position);
My code seems to work fine but there's an error message right next to my function call:
1.too many arguments provided to function like macro invocation
2.Expression result unused
I tried to move the function from header file to c source file. but other functions in the header file works fine and this doesn't work with the error message.

I have a 1wire program from maxim running in visual studio. There is this argument in the main function that requires the com port to be specified the command line. If I do pass it as "COM1" the program works as expected.
I don't want to depend on having to pass "COM1" in the command line and into main. I've tried creating a string for COM1 and passing it right into the if function but it doesn't work.
Code:
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
int len, addr, page, answer, i;
int done = FALSE;
SMALLINT bank = 1;
uchar data[552];

i'm still unclear between the difference between using pointer and a reference
I understood the concept of pointers in c in the class i took last year
and that was to change the actual value stored in the memory address Code:
void change_a(int a*){
a=6;
}
int main(){
int a=5;
change_a(&a);
}
but in c++ I've been using references in all my assignments because I don't know how to correctly use pointers in c++ I may have missed a class but I'm on spring break and would like to clear things up
so in c++
in my assignments I would call it like this Code:
void change_a(int &a){
a=6;
}
int main(){
int a=5;
change_a(a);
}
so does this change the value in the address or does it make another copy of a in my c++ code and stores 6 in that copy

I need to create a main function with a one dimension dynamic array with float data type. The total number of array elements must be controlled by a user input from the keyboard. Test data is three different lengths 3,6,9 of the array. The lengths have to be set up at run time from users input. I understand how to create dynamic array but not where the user inputs the length of the array. How would I implement this?

I'm trying to pass the value of an object created from a class file to a function outside of the "Int Main" function in the main.cpp file. I've successfully created the object, I just want to pass it to a void function but I'm getting the scope error below. I'm not sure how to correct. I'm not having much luck with research either (static variables?).
error: 'TicTacToe' was not declared in this scope
main.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include "Signature.h"
#include "Gameplay.h"
using namespace std;

char square[10] = {'0', '1', '2', '3', '4', '5', '6', '7', '8', '9'};

I wanted to print the values of a array from a function by passing the array as well as the number of elements to be read. For a single dimensional array, this is how i have written it. It's pretty straight forward. I want to read 5 elements from the 5th element in the array.
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
void display(int array[],int size) {
int i;
[Code]....
With this code I want to print the five elements from the element present in [0][4].
But shows an error that
Code:
D:BennetCodeblocks CLearning CSingleDimentionalArray.c||In function 'main':|
D:BennetCodeblocks CLearning CSingleDimentionalArray.c|18|warning: passing argument 1 of 'display' from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]|
D:BennetCodeblocks CLearning CSingleDimentionalArray.c|2|note: expected 'int (*)[10]' but argument is of type 'int *'|
||=== Build finished: 0 error(s), 1 warning(s) (0 minute(s), 0 second(s)) ===|
I know when you pass a array as an argument it gets decomposed into a pointer, but with a multi-dimensional array this is not the case. how this works for mult- dimensional array's?

I'm wondering if it is possible to pass a 2d array to a function where the size of the array is not known at runtime.
I've tried
function ( array[][6] ) ;
But the size of the array has to be constant so it cannot be declared later.
I've tried using a template but you still have to declare the size of the array at runtime. Is this even possible at all?
The only other way I can think of is using a dynamic 2d array but how to create one and manipulate it.

I want to pass array to function, to fill array with new values and then to print the array in the main. But I have problem because it prints me just array of zeros. Maybe the concept is wrong, I'm new with passing arrays to function.
function:
Code:
void printSum(int *return_array) {
int return_array[3];
int i;
for(i = 0; i < 3 ; i++){
return_array[i] = 5;
Code:
void printSum(int *return_array);
int main {
int m_return_array[3];
int i,j;
for(i= 0 ; i < 3 ; i++){
m_return_array[i] = 0;
} printfSum(start,m_return_array);

I need to pass a 2D array to a function. I want to know, where I may have made a mistake. This is the piece of code that I found on the web, and I am using it to allocate my 2D array.
Code:
signed char allocate2D( int** arr2D, int rows, int cols )
{
int i;
arr2D = malloc( rows*sizeof( int* ) );
if( !arr2D )
return -1;
[Code]....
My main function passes the 2D array to the function
Code: signed char read_root_message_file( int **Root_Messages, int *num ) This is how I pass the array in the main function to the above function:
Code:
int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
int **Root_Messages;
...
...
Root_Messages = NULL;
read_root_message_file( Root_Messages, &num_root_msg );

I am following a tutorial and the topic was passing array to function so i tried to do a BMI calculator by myself. I am using code blocks to compile the codes, it is actually working while using compiler's run button. But when I open the exe file, its closing the window after entering the persons' weights and heights. Here is the code
Code:
// Passing array to function example BMI calculator of n person
#include<stdio.h>
#include<math.h>
void assess(float bmi[],int a);
int main(void){

i have defined an object which is an array of my class called Player now i want to pass this whole array as a parameter in a function, i think it will be done by using pointers but i am not able to figure out how it is done?
Player player[4];
void showscoreboard(" ", int cround){}
" " represents the blank where the array should b passed.
