Thread: array bounds overflow

I have this source with the fragment attached. When i try to compile it with VC6 it gives me an "array bounds overflow" error for every line in that fragment. So, any ideas how to get rid of that error? because i dont have a ........ing clue...

Code:

CHAR                  Pattern[NUM_DATA][Y][X]  = { { "O O O O O ",
                                                     " O O O O O",
                                                     "O O O O O ",
                                                     " O O O O O",
                                                     "O O O O O ",
                                                     " O O O O O",
                                                     "O O O O O ",
                                                     " O O O O O",
                                                     "O O O O O ",
                                                     " O O O O O"  },

                                                   { "OO  OO  OO",

                                                     "  OO  OO  ",
                                                     "OO  OO  OO",

                                                     "     OOOOO"  },

                                                   { "O  O  O  O",
                                                     " O  O  O  ",
                                                     "  O  O  O ",
                                                     "O  O  O  O",
                                                     " O  O  O  ",
                                                     "  O  O  O ",
                                                     "O  O  O  O",

                                                   { "OOOOOOOOOO",

                                                     "O OOOOOO O",
                                                     "O O    O O",
                                                     "O O OO O O",
                                                     "O O OO O O",
                                                     "O O    O O",
                                                     "O OOOOOO O",
                                                     "O        O",
                                                     "OOOOOOOOOO"  } };

What is NUM_DATA, Y, and X

NUM_DATA, Y, X are constants

Code:

#define NUM_DATA      5
#define X             10
#define Y             10

but the problem was with a string terminator. I made it this way:

Code:

CHAR                  Pattern[NUM_DATA][Y][X+1]  = { { "O O O O O "....

and everything works now. Thanks!
