RE: [c-prog] Re: Can a function return an array of 4 pointers?

[Rob Richardson]

But you need some way to know how big the array is: some marker, like 0
at the end of a string, or a count of the number of elements in the
array, which would mean you'd return a structure (or class) that looks
something like this:

struct CountedArray
{
        int numberOfElements
        MyType* pStartOfElements;
}

Or you need some guarantee that the function will only return
four-element arrays.
