I tried to use pointer with a function but I guess I am missing out on something
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
int add(int *a,int *b){
int *c,*d;
*c = *c+1;
*d = *d-1;
[Code] ....
And this one too
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
void add(int *a){
int *c;
c = c+1;

I'm trying to call a function via a function pointer, and this function pointer is inside a structure. The structure is being referenced via a structure pointer.
Code:
position = hash->(*funcHash)(idNmbr);
The function will return an int, which is what position is a type of. When I compile this code,
I get the error: error: expected identifier before ( token.
Is my syntax wrong? I'm not sure what would be throwing this error.
I am attempting to implement function pointers and I am having a bit of a problem.
See the code example below; what I want to be able to do is call a function pointer from another pointer.
I'll admit that I may not be explaining this 100% correct but I am trying to implement the code inside the main function below.
class MainObject;
class SecondaryObject;
class SecondaryObject {
public:
[Code]....
int example (int [], int, *int,*int,*int,*int);
int main () {
My code will be here
example (int array[], int size, &a,&b,&c,&d); // Like this??? I try it didnt work

I was wondering what magic does a * pointer before function actually do? Today our programming teacher asked us to look into it and explain it in the next class!

How can we assign a pointer to a function? const char* function_name(), here what exactly does the pointer point to?

Why isn't f and d the same after calling "dereference(f,d);"
As the title says, i'm using a function which returns a pointer to a struct:
the struct is the following:
Code:
typedef struct POINT
{
uint16_t x;
uint16_t y;
}
Coordinate; the function i'm using:
Code:
Coordinate * Read_XTP2046(void)
{static Coordinate screen;
//calculations to determine the coordinates
screen.x=(temp[1]+temp[2])/2;
screen.y=(temp[0]+temp[2])/2;
// and so on...
return &screen;}
The question is: how do i catch this pointer and make it into a Coordinate struct in which i can read the x and y.
In my main program i would do the following:
Code:
Coordinate cor;
cor = Read_XTP2046();
This does not work, as the function returns a pointer, but how to transform this pointer into a Coordinate struct.
I would like to initialize an arry containing function pointers with adresses of functions that have a variable number of arguments.
Below the code that works in principle. I would however get rid of the warning message during compilation pointing to the initialzation of the funtion pointers in the array. How do I need to cast the pointers to the functions ?
Code:
gcc func_ptr_init.c
func_ptr_init.c:28: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
func_ptr_init.c:32: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
Code:
#include<stdio.h>
unsigned char func1_ptr(unsigned int* if_desc, int* result_code) {
*if_desc = 1;
*result_code = 1;
return(0);

I am trying to return a pointer from a method. Below is a sample of my code.
CSubnode * CTest::GetSubNode() {
return m_psubnode;//this is declared in CTest as CSunbnode * m_psubnode
}
//in another class
m_subnode = m_ptest->GetSubNode(); //m_subnode is declared as a pointer
Is this the correct why to return a pointer?
I declared a pointer in main with value 0, so I want to change its value so that it points to other variable from a function, I guess the function creates a copy of my pointer that's why whatever I do within function doesn't change the real direction of the pointer in main. I've been trying something like this:
#include <stdio.h>
void redirectionate(char *str, char *ptrCopy);
int main()
{
[Code]....
two things I did'nt get till now
Q->1 what is the actual use of function pointer ?
Q->2 what is use of passing function as an argument to another function ?
How this code work bcoz when pointer variable assigned in called function and how different values get as resultant output, ans 2 97 for below code. How the code wil execute so that i can validate ans
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int i = 97, *p = &i;
foo(&i);
printf("%d ", *p);

I am trying to use "remove_if" with a predicate function inside a class. The code intends to remove the grid cells which an agent cannot move into (from among all possible cells).
Code:
void classname::function1()
{
vector<MoorePoint> neighbors;
....
[Code]....
That code would work if it was not in a class and the predicate was not a member function. However, now I receive long error messages which I guess refer to incompatibility of remove_if template with the predicate parameter (one error includes : error C2064: term does not evaluate to a function taking 1 arguments).

I am trying to wright a program that takes student grade data from a command line file, calculates a final grade, and copies the final grades to an output file. So far I have two functions, one that creates a student structure by allocating memory for it and returning its address, and one that should take that address and fill it with data from a line from the input file. My ultimate goal is to use a linked list to connect all the structs, but for now I just want to get the functions working. When I run what I have so far, I get an error C2440 (using visual 2010) that says "cannot convert from 'cStudent *', to 'cStudent', and points to the line where I call my fill function. How should structure pointers be passed?
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
struct student // Declaring student structure globally.

Also, here is a sample of what a line from the input file would look like:
Bill Gates, 60, 54, 38, 62, 65, 60, 50

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

I'm having a problem understanding something with pointers. I was trying to pass a pointer into a function in MSVC-2013, like
char* charptr;
and then calling
myfunct(charptr);
and then inside the function i would set charptr equal to another char ptr, simply like
charptr = anothercharptr;
But this actually caused a compile failure in MSVC, saying charptr is being used without being initialized. in Code::Blocks it just gives buggy output.
I solved this issue by calling the function like
myfunct(&charptr);
and declaring the function like
myfunct(char**);
and then I had to dereference the charptr in the function when assigning it to another ptr, so
*charptr = anothercharptr;
It seems like you should be able to just pass a ptr into a function and change its address to that of another pointer? My main question is really, what is the value of a pointer? I thought the value of a pointer was just the memory address it contains. But then I had to reference it to pass it into the function.
What is the difference between the value of the char* charptr written as either charptr and &charptr?
I am using a small robotic-car that is controlled by writing C/C++ codes under Linux. I need to use a particular function from the library provided by the manufacturer. The relevant API documentation for the function is:
BASEBOARD_ERROR_KIND ZMP zrc :: :: :: Baseboard GetRS232Data (char * msg )
RS232 data acquisition.
Argument:
[Out] msg Address of the acquired data.
Returns:
BASE_OK RS232 data acquisition success
BASE_BASE_232_GETDATA_ERR RS232 data acquisition failure
I have trouble writing the relevant code in the main program that invokes this function. Here is a snippet of what I have tried:
# include "Baseboard.h"
int main () {
Baseboard _Baseboard; // Class name is Baseboard
char *msg ;
[Code] ......
The part where I am uncertain is how to handle the char pointer "msg" in the declaration, function call and referencing. According to the documentation, the char pointer "msg" is the output of the function so I presume that is is somehow dynamically allocated. Am I handling the char pointer properly in the declaration, function call and referencing parts?
Another related question I have is: I am printing out the value of the variable "dummy". I always get 0 for it. Since the variable "dummy" is an enum of type BASEBOARD_ERROR_KIND which can take on two values (first value represents success and the second failure), it is alright to get a integer value of 0 for it if the function call was successful ? (I do not have much experience with using enums so this is a enum-related question on whether we can get an integer value representing the first enum value) .
i am having trouble figuring out inorder traversal in this assignment. I was given this function definition in the homework i have to declare it. The problem i am having is how to use pointer to function to traverse the list.
void CBSTree<NodeType>::InOrderTraversal(void (*fPtr)(const NodeType&)) const;
void CBSTree<NodeType>::InOrder(const CTreeNode<NodeType> *const nodePtr
,void (*fPtr)(const NodeType&)) const;
//nodePtr is a pointer to a NodeType object (this is a recursive function, initially this points to the root).
//fPtr is a pointer to a non-member function that takes a const reference to a NodeType object as input, and
//returns nothing
I know without the pointer to function parameter it will be like this.
void InOrder(CTreeNode *nodePtr)
{
if(nodePtr != NULL)
{
InOrder(nodePtr->left);
cout<<nodePtr->value;
InOrder(nodePtr->right);
}
[Code]...
I just don't know how to traverse inorder with the function definition i am given.
I know how to pass a 2-D array to a function. The prototype for that is void f(int (*p)[2]) assuming the array is of integers and there are 2 columns in it.
However, if I wanted the same function to return a pointer to a 2-D array, what would be the prototype?
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
void myfunc(int* ); // what do i put in these parameters to accept a mem loc of a pointer
int main () {
int x = 5;
[Code] .....
SOLUTION:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
//Purpose to create a function that returns a pointer to a pointer
int** myfunc(int**);
int main () {
int x = 5;
