Thread: Problem with pointers

I have declared the following variable in a fuction:

Code:

char sFiles[MAX_NUMBER_OF_FILES][MAX_FILENAME];

Then I have a function that retrieves the file listing of a given directory:

Code:

/****************************************************************************/
DWORD DirListing
(
    char*  sDir,
    char** sListing,
    int*   iLength
)
/****************************************************************************/
{
    WIN32_FIND_DATA win32FindData;
    HANDLE          hFile;
    char            sDirListOfTxt[MAX_PATH];
    int             i;
    
    sprintf(sDirListOfTxt, "%s\\*.jar", sDir);

    i = 0;
    hFile = FindFirstFile(sDirListOfTxt, &win32FindData);
    if (hFile!=INVALID_HANDLE_VALUE) {
        strcpy(sListing[i], win32FindData.cFileName);
        i++;
        while (FindNextFile(hFile, &win32FindData)) {
            strcpy(sListing[i], win32FindData.cFileName);
            i++;
        }
        FindClose(hFile);
    }
    (*iLength) = i;
    return 0;
}

When I call this function I do:

Code:

DirListing(sDir, (char**)sFiles, &iFilesLength);

But everytime I execute the program, it just exited before it even begans with a Windows error that doesn't tell anything about it.

I guess it's a matter of pointers, but now I can't see where is the error. Any help?

And another more question... If I don't want to declare sFiles that way, and I just want to make it char**, how can I allocate memory in order to store an array of strings.

Thanks in advance.
