It’s the array that’s causing trouble in:
void print_graph(g_node graph_node[], double weight[][], int nodes);
The second and subsequent dimensions must be given:
void print_graph(g_node graph_node[], double weight[][32], int nodes);
Or you can just give a pointer to pointer:
void print_graph(g_node graph_node[], double **weight, int nodes);
However, although they look similar, those are very different internally.
If you’re using C99, you can use variably-qualified arrays. Quoting an example from the C99 standard (section ยง6.7.5.2 Array Declarators):
void fvla(int m, int C[m][m]); // valid: VLA with prototype scope
void fvla(int m, int C[m][m]) // valid: adjusted to auto pointer to VLA
{
typedef int VLA[m][m]; // valid: block scope typedef VLA
struct tag {
int (*y)[n]; // invalid: y not ordinary identifier
int z[n]; // invalid: z not ordinary identifier
};
int D[m]; // valid: auto VLA
static int E[m]; // invalid: static block scope VLA
extern int F[m]; // invalid: F has linkage and is VLA
int (*s)[m]; // valid: auto pointer to VLA
extern int (*r)[m]; // invalid: r has linkage and points to VLA
static int (*q)[m] = &B; // valid: q is a static block pointer to VLA
}
Question in comments
[…] In my main(), the variable I am trying to pass into the function is a
double array[][]
, so how would I pass that into the function? Passingarray[0][0]
into it gives me incompatible argument type, as does&array
and&array[0][0]
.
In your main()
, the variable should be:
double array[10][20];
or something faintly similar; maybe
double array[][20] = { { 1.0, 0.0, ... }, ... };
You should be able to pass that with code like this:
typedef struct graph_node
{
int X;
int Y;
int active;
} g_node;
void print_graph(g_node graph_node[], double weight[][20], int nodes);
int main(void)
{
g_node g[10];
double array[10][20];
int n = 10;
print_graph(g, array, n);
return 0;
}
That compiles (to object code) cleanly with GCC 4.2 (i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-gcc-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.9.00)) and also with GCC 4.7.0 on Mac OS X 10.7.3 using the command line:
/usr/bin/gcc -O3 -g -std=c99 -Wall -Wextra -c zzz.c
