Thread: array of pointers problem

I am trying to display the data from my list using an array that i pass to my class function display(). I can't seem to find any examples for what I am doing in the tutorials. When I attempt to display the list I get the following error.

Code:

Unhandled exception at 0x102aec80 (msvcr80d.dll) in list.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000000.

I was hoping for a simpler way to accomplish this. But I am very rusty and have to use the trial and error approach. Thanks for any help.

Code:

//=========================================================
// DisplayInput
//=========================================================

void displayinput(list & mylist)
{
	int arraysize = 0;
	char ** array;

	mylist.display(array, arraysize);

	for(int i = 0; i < arraysize; i++)
	{
		cout << array[i] << endl;

	}

	for(int i = 0; i < arraysize; i++)
	{
		delete [] array[i];
	}

	delete [] array;

	return;

}

//==========================================================
// Display
//==========================================================

int list::display(char **& array, int & arraysize)
{
     int i = 0;  //for traversing array	
  
     arraysize = num_in_list;

     array = new char*[arraysize];

     node * curr;         
     curr = head;

     while(curr)
     {

	array[i] = new char[60];
	array[i] = '\0';            
        strcat(array[i], curr->fname);    
        strcat(array[i], " " );      
        strcat(array[i], curr->lname); 
    
	++i;

        curr = curr->next;
     }

     arraysize = num_in_list;

      return 0;
}
