I have encountered a very very strange situation in this
now can anyone come up with an explanation for why this happensCode://patches is a **ptr
tmp_ptr=patches[0]+9; //when i printf'ed this it said 0x3F0072
tmp_ptr=patches[0]; //when i printf'ed this it said 0x3F002A
//actually this last one is the correct one
I am using mingw btw
Why what happens? that you print out a memory address.
Or do you mean why the +9 moves the address forwards 0x48 bytes?
Well that's pointer arithmetic for you - it looks like whatever is being pointed to is 8 bytes in size.
It's no use telling us something is a **variable without stating the type.
A double, maybe?Quote:

Is that the output you expected? Maybe you want to print **variable and not variable.
thank you so much for pointing that out for me
it is actually of type patch_entry which is a struct(8byte)
Did you figure out what you wanted to figure out?
yes
i was thinking the +9 would mean +9 bytes not patch_entry structs
