copied!<p>What you're wanting to do is to simulate the call stack so you can pass a constructed va_list to foo(). This is rather specific to the compiler ( and warning, there are differences between even 32- and 64-bit compilers ). The following code is for <strong><em>ENTERTAINMENT PURPOSES ONLY!!!</em></strong> as (if it even works on your system) it is prone to breakage. With it, I use a flat memory buffer and the populate it with a count and a bunch of character strings. You could fill it as appropriate with pointers to your strings and hand them down.</p> <p>It does seem to work on my system, Windows 7 w/ Visual Studio 2008, for 32-bit applications only.</p> <p><strong>* BAD IDEA CODE FOLLOWS!!! *</strong></p> <pre><code>#define PSEUDOSTACKSIZE ( sizeof(int) + 999 * sizeof(const char*) ) #pragma pack( push,1 ) union PSEUDOSTACK { int count; char data[PSEUDOSTACKSIZE]; }; #pragma pack( pop ) void foo( int count, va_list args ) { for ( int i = 0; i < count; i++ ) { char *s = va_arg( args, char* ); printf( "%s\n", s); } } void bar( PSEUDOSTACK data, ... ) { va_list args; va_start(args, data.count); foo( data.count, args); va_end(args); } // And later on, the actual test case code. PSEUDOSTACK barData; barData.count = 999; char *p = barData.data + sizeof(int); for ( int i = 0; i < 999; i++, p += sizeof(char*) ) { *reinterpret_cast<char**>(p) = "ThisIsABadIdea"; } bar( barData ); </code></pre> <p>I'll now go hang my head in shame for thinking of such an idea.</p>
