Thread: Pointer to function with string

Code:

This is my first time trying to use a pointer to a function. I wrote this code and from what I understand it should work but it doesn't. Could someone please help me out.

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

char (*s1)(char* (*ptr)(void));
char set_text(void);

int main() 
{
char *s2;
s1(set_text); 
printf("%s\n", s2);
return 0;
}


char set_text(void) {
char text[] = "Hello World!";
char *tmp;


tmp = (char*)malloc((strlen(text) + 1) * sizeof(char));


strcpy(tmp, text);
return tmp;
}
