invalid conversion from 'int*' to 'int' [-fpermissive]

[telmo_d]

What's wrong with the function call? When i do lSearch(V, size, key) iam just passing key by value, and lSearch has an int to receive not a pointer, why is it whining?

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


typedef struct
{
    int num;
     char name[80];
    float mark;
}Student;






int lSearh(Student *V, int size, int key)
{
    int i=0;
    while((i<size) && (V[i].num<key))
    {
        i++;
    }
    if((i<size) && (V[i].num==key))
    {
        return i;    
    }    
    else
    {
        return -1;
    }
}






Student *RemoveStudent(Student *V, int *size, int key)
{
    int i, j;
    i = lSearch(V, size, key); //Error here with key
    for(j=i;j<*size;j++)
    {
        V[j]=V[j+1];
    }
    *size=*size-1;
    V = (Student *)realloc(V, (*size)*sizeof(Student));
    if(V == NULL)
        return NULL;
    return V;
}

It's "whining" about other things, as well:

main.c|43|warning: implicit declaration of function 'lSearch'

That's because there's a typo in the function definition:

int lSearh(Student *V, int size, int key)

What's wrong with the function call? When i do lSearch(V, size, key) iam just passing key by value, and lSearch has an int to receive not a pointer, why is it whining?

"key" appears to be fine - the problem seems to be coming from "size".

Line 40: The "RemoveStudent()" function receives an int pointer called "size".
Line 43: You pass this int pointer (2nd argument) to the "lsearch()" function.

But the 2nd argument of "lsearch()" expects an int, not an int pointer as you're passing.

Oh yes, how come i not spot that...
I guess i was too focused on key since the compiler was telling me the error was coming from that location. Will be more careful next time.
It will be fine passing lSearch(V, *size, key) right? At least it compiles, fwiw
