Perhapse it should be:
ww.pappl[0].pappw
ww.pappl[1].pappw
ww.pappl[2].pappw
The following simplified program works as expected
/******************************/
#define NULL 0
main()
{
char i;
struct WM_menw { int x; int y;};
struct WM_appw { int x; int y;};
struct WM_appl { struct WM_appw *p; };
static struct WM_menw mw0 =
{
1,
2
};
static struct WM_appw aw1 =
{
3,
4
};
static struct WM_appw aw2 =
{
5,
6
};
static struct WM_appl appl[4] = {(struct WM_menw *)&mw0, &aw1, &aw2,
NULL};
printf ( "%d,%d,%d\n", appl[0].p - &mw0, appl[1].p - &aw1, appl[2].p -
&aw2 );
for ( i=0; i<4; i++)
{
if ( appl[i].p != NULL )
printf ( "%d %d\n", appl[i].p->x, appl[i].p->y );
}
getchar();
}
/***************************************/
Do you see any differences to what your trying to do?
