Thread: nested structs

I have changed the names of the original structs....but here is the corrected one....

Code:

#include<stdio.h>
#include<stdlib.h>
#include<string.h>
#include<regex.h>
 
#define ARRAY_SIZE 340
#define STRUCT_SIZE 340
 
#define MAXTOKENS       256
#define MAXLINE         1024     /* fgets buff */
#define MINLEN          3        /* skip lines shorter as */
#define NUL '\0'
#define TRUE 1
#define FALSE 0
 
char *strtok( char *str1, const char *str2 );
typedef structn ARRAY1{
        char time[ARRAY_SIZE];
        char date[ARRAY_SIZE];
}ARRAY1,ARR2;
 
typedef struct first{
      char name[10];
       ARRAY1 *main;
   }first;
 
typedef struct second{
      char db[10];
        2_ARRAY *other;
    }second;
 
char delims[] = "=";
char **split(char *string, char *delim);
int trim(char *str);
 
     first first_info;
     second second_info;
 
    ARRAY1 ARRAY1_info;
      ARR2 ARR2_info;

int main()
{

 printf ("TEST \n" );
        FILE *data_txt,*dbm_txt;
        char *delim = "=";
        char **tokens = NULL;
int i = 0, mcount = 0, lcount = 0;
        int loop;
        int sort;
        int a=0;
        int b=0;
        int j; 
int count = 0, cnt = 0;
char line[MAXLINE],line2[MAXLINE];
 
        struct ARRAY1 *str_ptr;   
        struct ARR2 *new_ptr;
      str_ptr = &ARRAY1_info;
      new_ptr = &ARR2_info;
 
       struct first *ptr;
       struct second *new;
        ptr = &first_info;
        new = &second_info;
 
        data_txt = fopen("db2cfg.txt","r");
        dbm_txt = fopen("db2cfg2.txt","r");
 int read = 0;
 while (fgets(line,100,data_txt)!=NULL)
 {
trim(line);
 strcpy(first_info.name,"ccmlmd");
        if ((strlen(line) > 1)&&(read!=0)){
        lcount++;
        tokens = split(line, delim);
        for(i = 0; tokens[i] != NULL; i++) {
        if (i==0){
        if (tokens[i]!=NULL){
 //  printf("%02d: time %s ", i, tokens[i]);
        strcpy(first_info.main[count].time,tokens[i]);
       }
      }
  if (i==1){
      if(tokens[i]!=NULL){
//      printf("%02d: date %s", i, tokens[i]);
 strcpy(first_info.main[count].date,tokens[i]);
        }
     }
   }
  for(i = 0; tokens[i] != NULL; i++)
  free(tokens[i]);
  free(tokens);
  count++;
  lcount++;
      }
 
      for(i=0; i < count; i++) {
 printf("%d %s %s", i,first_info.main[i].time, first_info.main[i].date);

      }
 
  i = 0;
fclose(data_txt);
// start db2cfg2
 read = 0;
while (fgets(line2,100,dbm_txt)!=NULL)
{
trim(line2);

strcpy(second_info.db,"ccmlmd");
//    printf("other %s",second_info.db);
        if ((strlen(line2) > 1)&&(read!=0)){
        mcount++;
        tokens = split(line2, delim);
        for(i = 0; tokens[i] != NULL; i++) {
        if (i==0){
   if (tokens[i]!=NULL){
//   printf("%02d: time %s ", i, tokens[i]);
 strcpy(second_info.other[cnt].time,tokens[i]);
       }
      }
  if (i==1){
      if(tokens[i]!=NULL){
//      printf("%02d: date %s", i, tokens[i]);
 strcpy(second_info.other[cnt].date,tokens[i]);
        }
     }
   }
  for(i = 0; tokens[i] != NULL; i++)
  free(tokens[i]);
  free(tokens);
  cnt++;
 } // add for(j=0 ;j<=cnt
 j = 0;
      for(j=0; j < cnt; j++) {
 printf("%d %s %s", j,second_info.other[j].time,second_info.other[j].date);
      }
 
        fclose(dbm_txt);
        return 0;
        exit(0);
 }

Can you confirm if this line is correct ?
strcpy(first_info.main[count].time,tokens[i]);

Yes i must have missed it when I substituted the array names...
could you please substitute 2_ARRAY as ARR2

still getting the
"test.c", line 136: syntax error before or at: *

Can you confirm if this line is correct?

strcpy(first_info.main[count].time,tokens[i]);

It depends on what you mean by "correct". The line is syntactically and semantically correct, but I would still expect the program to blow up at this point, since I don't see anywhere where you actually make that main pointer point to anything in particular, let alone an actual array of things.

(And I assume that you have fixed the typo of "structn" in your code?

Can you help me with pointing the pointer
I am not sure where to initialize the pointer.

The key word you are looking for is "malloc".

yep got it...its working....thank you.
