GP32 Totally Lost On Arrays :(

[CrazyDesi]

Ok I am having problems with this code:

typedef struct
{
u16 x;
u16 y;
unsigned char sprite[];
}Sprites;
 
Sprites image[19];
 
image[1].sprite[]=barS[];

barS in this is just a .bmp converted to .c for Mirkos SDK.

If I do this:

typedef struct
{
u16 x;
u16 y;
unsigned char sprite[];
}Sprites;
 
Sprites image[19];
 
image[1].sprite=barS;

I get invalid use of flexible array member. Anyone able to help me .

try unsigned char *sprite

 

[CrazyDesi]

Tried it but get the same parse error as the first one.

 

[no_skill]

hmm.. weird.

how does your bar file look like?

 

[WhiteFalcon]

Yes, replace

unsigned char sprite[];

with

unsigned char *sprite;

and the ending line would then be

image[1].sprite = (unsigned char *) barS;

Anyway, this may help if the barS array is defined as static.
It works for me this way, but I use my own converter and never
seen Mirko's SDK.

If the above does not work can you provide the defintion of barS?

This would help us troubleshoot with you.

typedef struct
{
u16 x;
u16 y;
unsigned char * sprite[];
}Sprites;

Sprites image[19];

image[1].sprite=*barS;

typedef struct
{
u16 x;
u16 y;
unsigned char * sprite[];
}Sprites;

Sprites image[19];

image[1].sprite=&barS;

Those 2 do not work. I didn't do the typecast because its already an unsigned char. Here is the code for the barS. Its basically a paddle for a pong clone. Anyway here it is:

Hmm, its static so you should cast it to pointer anyway.

Right after you posted I got it solved. RoberJ and general helped me out. Thanks to the both of them .
