You have to give memory for the pointer.
"name" is declared as a double pointer,so first allocate memory to the
pointer, and then for the element.
addrList.name = (char**) MemPtrNew (sizeof(void *) * addrList.total);
// "total" is the total pointers you want to declare,ie the number of names
in the array
Now allocate memory for each element (in a for loop or, when required).
addrList.name[0]=(char*)MemPtrNew(StrLen(outbuffer)+1);
addrList.name[1]=(char*)MemPtrNew(StrLen(outbuffer)+1);
...
...
...
addrList.name[addrlist.total]=(char*)MemPtrNew(StrLen(outbuffer)+1);

I'm having trouble allocating memory for this structure.
char outbuffer[1024];
typedef struct

char **name;
int *idx;
int total;
}AddrRecord;
addrList.name[addrList.total]=(char*)MemPtrNew(StrLen(outbuffer)+1);
Is there any reason why i can't use the Mem Ptr or something to allocate
the memory?
