Thread: forcing signed into unsigned

Why isn't this working...?

Yes, I am trying to force signed into unsigned.
By dereferencing the LHS I hope to accomplish the conversion.
It's the segmentation fault that concerns me.
I'm curious to know what bounds of programming I've exceeded?
Thanks in advance...Dave++

Code:

unsigned long* scalerData[COUNTERS];
long Data;
...
call function(){
 for(int i=0; i<COUNTERS; i++){
    this->Read32Counter(i, &Data);  // Read32Counter(int, long*)
    *this->scalerData[i] = Data;       // *this->... causes segmentation fault                           
    // this->scalerData[i] = &Data;   // error: pointers of non-equal type

This line seems odd. Are you sure you need that star? Without seeing details of the types involved, there's no way to tell. Do you get any warnings anywhere?
