Suggest you take an intro C class. That's a pointer to a pointer.
Go get yourself a copy of K&R. How did you get to be a programmer not
knowing this?

Subject: Code Question


Hi, all. I'm reading through _Palm OS Programming: The Developers Guide,
2nd Edition_. I will admit that I am still wet behind the ears with
C/C++, but I cannot find the answer to this question in Bjarne
Stroustrups _The C++ Programming Language, Special Edition_. On page 258
of the Palm OS book, a piece of sample code is given that I do not
understand. If anybody could offer some insight, I would be grateful.

Using the first approach, we need to create an array with each element
pointing to a string. We'll store that array as a global (so that we can
deallocate it later):

static Char **gStringsPtrArray = NULL;

What type of variable was just created and initialized when ** is used?
