i dont know when palm-dev-forum became a learning-c discussion list :)
but, look at your structure again. what does it contain?
- and id
- a pointer to a bit of memory (where the class is stored)
- a pointer to a bit of memory (where the name is stored)
- a character to represent the gender
now.. look back at these.. can you see what is wrong? :) your never
actually storing the class or name in your struct. when you write it,
it'll put the values of the pointers. when you read, those values
that are put in are 100% not likely to be valid :)
easy bug fix.
