POFunction pointers - outside library, warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type
text
Body
copied!<p>With yours help I finally compiled a code with function pointers. But now I would like to do exact same thing but for functions which are from the "outside" library. typedef, arguments, compilation flags are 100% fine, I got this warning ONLY when I try to call a function from the outside library (when I wrote a function with the same prototype and tried to call it with this code it was just fine). Any ideas?</p> <pre><code>#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include "libs/outlib.h" typedef int (*VFUNCV)(int, double); void call(int which, VFUNCV* fun, int a, double b) { fun[which](a, b); } int main() { VFUNCV fun[2] = {outlibfun1, outlibfun2}; call(0, fun, 3, 4.5); return 0; } </code></pre> <p>Warning:</p> <pre><code>funargs.c: In function ‘main’: funargs.c:14:5: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default] funargs.c:14:5: warning: (near initialization for ‘fun[0]’) [enabled by default] funargs.c:14:5: warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default] funargs.c:14:5: warning: (near initialization for ‘fun[1]’) [enabled by default] </code></pre> <p>And 14th line:</p> <pre><code>VFUNCV fun[2] = {outlibfun1, outlibfun2}; </code></pre> <p>Declaration of <code>outlibfun</code>: <code>int outlibfun1(int, double);</code></p> <p><strong>ANOTHER NOT-WORKING (WARNING) EXAMPLE:</strong></p> <pre><code>#include <stdio.h> #include <stdlib.h> #include "libs/outlibz2.h" typedef unsigned char* (*VFUNCV)(const unsigned char *, unsigned long, unsigned char *); void call(int which, VFUNCV* fun, const unsigned char *a, unsigned long b, unsigned char * c) { fun[which](a, b, c); } int main() { VFUNCV fun[2] = {outlibfun1}; call(0, fun, "b", 3, "a"); return 0; } </code></pre>
