I have a function int handle_request(server* server, int conn_fd); that takes in 2 arguments.
How do I assign it to this function pointer?
void (*func)(void* input, void* output)
I've been trying to do things like
void (*func)(void* input, void* output) = handle_request;
and tried these but I always get
warning: initialization from incompatible pointer type [enabled by default]
As mentionied in your question if the function prototype returns int, then the pointer must match it. If the retuzrn type should be void, then the pointer is also to be void.
void handle_request(void* input, void* output)
{
}
int main(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
void (*func)(void* input, void* output) = handle_request;
return 0;
}
or
int handle_request(void* input, void* output)
{
return 0;
}
int main(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
{
int (*func)(void* input, void* output) = handle_request;
return 0;
}
Your function pointer should match your function signature. This means that you can assign function pointer:
void (*func)(void* input, void* output)
to the function:
void handle_request(void *input, void *output)
If you try to it your way a warning will be issued.
handle_requestlook like?handle_requestneeds to match your function pointer definition - perhaps you should post the definition of this too ?integerand the function pointer that you have declared returns avoid.
