C: What's wrong with the following declaration?
What's wrong with the following declaration?
char* ptr1, ptr2 ;
I get errors when I try to use ptr2 as a pointer.
char * applies only to ptr1 and not to ptr2. Hence ptr1 is getting declared as a char pointer, whereas, ptr2 is being declared merely as a char. This can be rectified in two ways :
char *ptr1, *ptr2 ;
or
typedef char* CHARPTR ; CHARPTR ptr1, ptr2 ;
