    problem with passing data, again.

    Hi everyone,

    I encounter this problem and don't know how to get it work. Please help me! Thanks in advanced. Sorry, somehow I can't use the code tag.
    Code:
     
    void Functionchild(int * data)
    {
            int i;
            for(i=0; i <4096; i++)
                  {
                    printf("\nValue of buffer passed %d", *data);
                   }
    }
    
    
    void FunctionFather(int *databuf){
              /* Doing some stuff */
              FunctionChild(databuf);
    }
    
    
    void FunctionGrandFa(int * buf){
              FunctionFather(buf);
    }
    
    
    int main(void)
    {
           int * buffer;
           int j;
    
           buffer = malloc(sizeof(*buffer)*4096);
           for(j=0; j<4096; j++)                 
                 {
                      *buffer = j;
                 }
           FunctionGradFa(buffer);
    
           free(buffer);
           return 0;
    }
    The values from 0 to 4096 are supported to print out in the FunctionChild, but they are not. Anyone please check out if I made any mistake.

    Try this:
    Code:
    void Functionchild(int * data)
    {
       int i;
       for(i=0; i <4096; i++)
          printf("\nValue of buffer passed %d", data[i]);
    }
    
    int main(void)
    {
       int * buffer;
       int j;
    
       buffer = malloc(sizeof(int)*4096);
       for(j=0; j<4096; j++)                 
          buffer[j] = j;
       FunctionGradFa(buffer);
       free(buffer);
       return 0;
    }
    Try not.
    Do or do not.
    There is no try.

    Alternately, they could increment their original pointer and use their original code. Probably not the ideal way to do it, but it would work.

    Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment.
