Troubles passing 2D arrays of char

well, take a little look in it:

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
void ptr_explode(char *ptr, char *results)
{
    //char *ptr = "a pointer with a buch of words un fun funf unf ";
   
    /* first 'convert' the pointer into a string so that we can use strtok */
    int      ptrlen = strlen(ptr);
    char    string[ptrlen];
    strcpy(string, ptr);

    char    *result = NULL;
    int      ntokens = 0, aux;
    char    words[256][256];
    result = strtok(string, " ");
    while (result != NULL) {
        strcpy(words[ntokens++], result);
        result = strtok(NULL, " ");
    }
    for(aux=0;aux<=ntokens;aux++){
                              strcpy(results, words[aux]);
                              }
}

int main(void)
{
    char *ptr = "a pointer with a buch of words un fun funf un";
    char *exploded;
    char words[256][256];
    int aux, aux1;
    for(aux=0;aux<=256;aux++){
                              for(aux1=0;aux1<=256;aux1++){
                                                        words[aux][aux1]='\0';
                                                        }
                              }
    ptr_explode(ptr, words);

    return 0;
}

i'm very dizzy with all of this, plz someone tell me what i did wrong!

Code:

---

char *ptr = "a pointer with a buch of words un fun funf un";

---

That is a string literal, and can not be modified (as in strtok, which inserts NULL's at the delineators). Try;

Code:

---

char ptr[] = "a pointer with a buch of words un fun funf un";

---

Also your function should be taking a pointer to a pointer

Code:

---

void ptr_explode(char *ptr, char **results)

---

Code:

---

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <conio.h>
void ptr_explode(char *ptr, char **results)
{
    //char *ptr = "a pointer with a buch of words un fun funf unf ";
   
    /* first 'convert' the pointer into a string so that we can use strtok */
    int      ptrlen = strlen(ptr);
    char    string[ptrlen];
    strcpy(string, ptr);

    char    *result = NULL;
    int      ntokens = 0, aux;
    char    words[256][256];

    result = strtok(string, " ");
    while (result != NULL) {
        strcpy(words[ntokens++], result);
        result = strtok(NULL, " ");
    }
   
    for(aux=0;aux<=ntokens;aux++){
    puts("1");
                              strcpy(results[aux], words[aux]);
                              puts("2");
                              }
}

int main(void)
{
    char *ptr = "a pointer with a buch of words un fun funf un";
    char **exploded;
    char words[256][256];
    int aux, aux1;
   

    ptr_explode(ptr, words);//it dont run this function why??
    for(aux1=0;aux1<=10;aux1++){
                                puts(words[aux]);
                  }

    getche();
    return 0;
}

i've modified it a bit, take a look...

Nevermind my comments.

Code:

---

int ptr_explode(char *ptr, char results[][256])

---

As was sayed replace :

Code:

---

void ptr_explode(char *ptr, char **results)

---

with

Code:

---

void ptr_explode(char *ptr, char  results[][256])

---

and replace

Code:

---

puts(words[aux]);

---

with

Code:

---

puts(words[aux1]);

---

It is alway a good idea to remove variables you don't use.
like aux.


The all code. should look like this :

Code:

---

void ptr_explode(char *ptr, char results[][256], int *pntokens)
{
    char    *result;
    char    string[strlen(ptr)];


    strcpy(string, ptr);

    *pntokens = 0;
    result = strtok(string, " ");
    while (result != NULL) {
        strcpy(results[(*pntokens)++], result);
        result = strtok(NULL, " ");
    }
}

int main(void)
{
    char *ptr = "a pointer with a buch of words un fun funf un";
    char words[256][256];
    int  aux;
    int  ntokens = 0;   

    ptr_explode(ptr, words, &ntokens);
    for(aux=0 ; aux < ntokens ; aux++)
        puts(words[aux]);

    getche();
    return 0;
}

thank u all!
now i can proceed in my personal project of my conversor!!

thx a lot!! and sorry for my newbie mistakes, and sorry too by my poor english
