Greetings, I got a question concerning pointers. In the past, I've made tables with a search name, and the actual pointers, and written assignment functions to assign the proper pointers with a check of the name or a pointer name, and assigned the pointer name to the whatever in the datafiles.
I am wondering if there is a way to go a step further. Would it be possible using fwrite, and fread to write a actual pointer to the datafile, and then read it back in and assign as the whatever_table is being read in? I saw this in olc2.01 but my spanish is worth a damn and I can't translate how He did it.. something bout SHINT_TO_POINTER or INT_TO_POINTER. The English part I understand but I can't figure out the spanish parts. Anyone out there maybe able to convert that over to english from tablesave.c? Sincerely, Siron Redkoala Mud Programmer
