Thread: struct error

Hello to all,

I am receiving an error that I do not know how to resolve. Here is the relevant code.

Code:

typedef struct DPCell { char rowChar ; char colChar ;  int Score ; struct DPCell *traceBack ; int traceBackType; } DPCell ; 

DPCell **DPArray ;   // 2-D array


 if ( DPArray.rowChar[i][j] == DPArray.colChar[i][j] )

Error: request for member ‘rowChar’ in something not a structure or union

Any suggestions would be great

DPArray is a pointer to a pointer of DPCell, try (*DPArray)->rowChar...

new error now.

Code:

 ( (*DPArray)->rowChar[i][j] == (*DPArray)->colChar[i][j] )

error: subscripted value is neither array nor pointer

Any suggestions??

thanks for the help with the last question. however, i have a new problem.

warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type

heres the code where the problem is:

Code:

bestRowCell.address = & DPArray[i][j] ;

here is my initialization; which may have an error in them

Code:

 typedef struct DPCell { char rowChar ; char colChar ;  int Score ; struct DPCell *traceBack ; int traceBackType; } DPCell ; 

 DPCell **DPArray ;   // 2-D array

struct { int score ; char * address ;} bestRowCell ;

???

how do I get bestRowCell.address to contain the address of DPArray[i][j]?

my program is generating a 2d array filled with scores. I want to get the highest score in my bottom row and my right-most column and then get the higher of the two.

thanks for the help. to be continued...
