Hello, I just found this board due to some unresolved trouble I've been having with a program I'm writing. When I compile (on gcc) I receive this warning.

b_poplist.c:48: warning: assignment from incompatible pointer type

If anyone knows why this warning comes up and could assist me in correcting it, it would be much appreciated.

I have tried to cast the right side as (b_list*) but that heeds no different results.
ie: cb_list->next = (b_list*)hb_list

Here is my code for b_poplist.c
Code:
#include "b_list.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <sys/socket.h>
#include <bluetooth/bluetooth.h>
#include <bluetooth/hci.h>
#include <bluetooth/hci_lib.h>
#include <unistd.h>

b_list *b_poplist(void)
{
	inquiry_info *ii = NULL;
        int max_rsp, num_rsp;
        int dev_id, sock, len, flags;
        int i;
        char addr[19] = { 0 };
        char name[248] = { 0 };

        dev_id = hci_get_route(NULL);
        sock = hci_open_dev( dev_id );
        if (dev_id < 0 || sock < 0) {
            perror("opening socket");
            exit(1);
        }

        len  = 8;
        max_rsp = 255;
        flags = IREQ_CACHE_FLUSH;
        ii = (inquiry_info*)malloc(max_rsp * sizeof(inquiry_info));
    
        num_rsp = hci_inquiry(dev_id, len, max_rsp, NULL, &ii, flags);
        if( num_rsp < 0 ) perror("hci_inquiry");
	
	b_list *hb_list, *cb_list;
	hb_list = NULL;
	
	for (i = 0; i < num_rsp; i++) {
		ba2str(&(ii+i)->bdaddr, addr);
                memset(name, 0, sizeof(name));
                if (hci_read_remote_name(sock, &(ii+i)->bdaddr, sizeof(name), name, 0) < 0)
        		strcpy(name, "[unknown]");
		printf("FOUND: (%d) = %s , %s\n",i , name, addr);		
		
		cb_list = calloc(1, sizeof(b_list));
		cb_list->name = name;
		cb_list->m_addrs = addr;
		cb_list->next = hb_list; /* Warning occurs here line 48 */
		hb_list = cb_list;
		printf("ADDED: (%d) = %s , %s\n", i, hb_list->name, hb_list->m_addrs);
	}	
	
	cb_list = hb_list;

	free( ii );
        close( sock );
	
	printf("RETURNED: %s, %s\n", hb_list->name, hb_list->m_addrs);	
	
	return hb_list;
}
Also, the structure for the linked list b_list is such:

Code:
typedef struct
{
	char* name;
	char* m_addrs;
	struct b_list* next;
} b_list;
Also, if you notice anything else in the code that could be fixed up to run a little better that would be appreciated as well.

Thanks,

Brian
