Thread: Accesing pointer to struct data

Hy all. I have this code, done it so, because it is a school project, so I am forced to use this things ...
Anyway, I don't understand what its wrong
Here is the code:
//this is valuta.h:

Code:

typedef void* cheie;
typedef void* valoare;
typedef int (*FunCmp)(cheie a, cheie b);
struct _Tabel;
typedef _Tabel* Tabel;
struct _Tabel{
   cheie valuta[10];
   valoare lei[10];
   int dim;
   FunCmp FC;
};
void creaza(Tabel& t, FunCmp f);
valoare insereaza(Tabel &t, cheie c, valoare v);
valoare cauta(Tabel& t,cheie c);

//this is valuta.cpp:

Code:

#include <iostream.h>
#include "valuta.h"
void creaza(Tabel& t, FunCmp f){
   t=new _Tabel;
   t->dim=-1;
}
valoare cauta(Tabel& t, cheie c){
   while(t->dim>=0)
   {
   int    i=t->dim;
   cout<<"t->dim: "<<t->dim<<"   value:"<<(*(int*)t->lei[i])<<endl;
                       //here is the big problem ... i
                       //guess that t->lei[i] point to the
                       //start off the array, but how can I
                       //make it to point to each element ? :-/
   t->dim--;       //in this moment this code just prints
                       //the last value for t->dim times ...
   }
   return 0;
}
//this is were I populate my struct ...
valoare insereaza(Tabel& t, cheie c, valoare v){

       t->dim++;
       t->valuta[t->dim]=c;
       t->lei[t->dim]=v;
       cout<<"t->dim:"<<t->dim<<endl;
       cout<<(char*)t->valuta[t->dim];
       cout<<" "<<(*(int *)t->lei[t->dim])<<endl;

   return v;
}

// and finally this is the main program, here
//I create values and call the inserting function...
//I also call "cauta" wich should search for a value ...
//but you can see that is not working ...

Code:

#include "valuta.h"
#include <iostream.h>
void main(){
   Tabel t;
   FunCmp Fc;
   creaza(t, Fc);
   char val[10];
   int *plei;
   int lei;
   int nrval;
   cout<<"Cate valori ? (Maxim 10) ";//the number of values
   cin>>nrval;
   for (int i=0;i<nrval;i++){
   cout<<"Valuta dorita:";//one value, a string
   cin>>val;
   cout<<endl;
   cout<<"Valoarea in lei:";//another value, an int
   cin>>lei;
   cout<<endl;
   plei=&lei;
   insereaza(t, &val, plei);
   }
   cauta(t,val);
}

If I cout with:
cout <<"t->dim: " <<t->dim <<" value:" <<t->lei[t->dim]
it prints a memory address (the same )for 3 times (suposing t->dim = 3).
If I cout with:
cout <<"t->dim: " <<t->dim <<" value:" <<(*(int*)t->lei[i]) <<endl; //insteed of "i" I also may put t->dim, the result its
//the same
it prints the LAST value entered 3 times (suposing t->dim =3)
Is not this the problem, in first case it prints an adrress because t->lei[t->dim] (or t->lei[i]) is a pointer to struct.
In the second case it prints the value because the present of the dereference operator. Still in this case I don't understand why I can't wrote (*(int)t->lei[i]) because, its make sense for me. I cast to int, and I want to print the data from that location of memory ... Wright ? The compiler says: illegal indirection, but I don't really understand why ...
So how can I make things that I can print the data from every element ?
Any idea will be greatly apreciated ! Thank you!
