Thread: Passing Structure Pointers to Functions

Wow.. these pointers are powerful.

Oh and I bet I can do this too:

Code:

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
	DIR_OPTIONS options={0,0,0,0,0,0}
	DIR_OPTIONS *address=&options;
	
	//call the dir function
	dir(address);
	
	//and to later access the variables I can use
	address->variable
	//or
	options.variable
}

Am I right?

Thanks a lot Elysia. You really do know everything!

Exactly.
