Thread: Segmentation fault. passing extra parameters to function

I have a function declared like so:

PHP Code:

int func( int file_num, int a, int l, int g ); 


I decided to change this so it could accept another parameter:

PHP Code:

int func( int file_num, int a, int l, int g , int o); 


and call the function like so:

PHP Code:

func(num_of_files, l, a, g, o) 


However now, with that extra parameter, i get a segmentation fault.

There is a strcpy in this function, where i copy file/dir names to an array. That array gets passed to qsort, and then onwards to another function to be printed.

The array is declared like so:

PHP Code:

char Array[file_num][100]; /* probably not the best way, but il leae it for the moment */ 


when i take the strcpy function out, i dont get a core dump.

Are there common problems when passing more parameters to functions like im trying to do?

thanks

Well, not unless you have almost no memory available.
