Ok, I've been pulling my hair out all morning on this problem. I've just
switched to CodeWarrior 8.0 and am wondering if this might be a quirk with
CW.
I have a very simple structure definition and function that uses the
pointer to the sturcture as a parameter. But it won't compile. I keep
getting "pointer/array required." If I change MyIrEvt (just as a test) to
anything else that doesn't match the MyIrEvt within the function, it
compiles fine. It is as though the MyIrEvt in the function is losing the
type.
I have tried changing the way the structure is defined using almost every
possible declaration variations and it doesn't work.
I have tried all forms of casting and nothing works. I have left out most
of the code and just included the relevant definitions. Anyone have a
clue what is going on here?
typedef struct _MyIrEvent{
IrEvent IrEvt;
UInt16 test;
} MyIrEvent;
MyIrEvent *MyIrEvt; // I have also tried _MyIrEvent *MyIrEvt
static void DoIR(MyIRC, MyIrEvt) {
switch(MyIrEvt->IrEvt) { // this won't compile
case LEVENT_DATA_IND:
break;
// more case stuff below
}
The error is "pointer/array required." I have tried casting the MyIrEvt
within the switch statement back to the structure and it still gives the
error. ???
