Re: Passing structs....
Hello Igor,
This function, of course, is equivalent to
void f( int r, int TOUCHES) {}
There's a lot of busywork that achieves precisely nothing. I fail to see
the point of the exercise.
Yeah, I know, its bcause the data doesn't go anywhere, it stays in f(), but
it was just an exercise to test stuff and used it as a sample option, and yup
it doesn't do anything!
Does it absolutely have to be just one function? You have three largely
unrelated operations - why not have three functions performing them?
It's not like you are being charged per function or anything.
I have to change this at 15 diffrent places in my code.... aaaahaaahhh! I
tell you what, one day I will most probably do it with 3 functions... and
soon, especially if I get any other problem issues with this.
Igor, I truely can say that I learned alot from you and the this community
this passed 2 weeks (and much in the past) and therefore I really thank you
and everyone else for your constant replies.
Have a nice week!

Okay, This was hard for me to explain in previous posts because I was
very confused, but lets get some ground rules that I have to go by.
--- Rule #1 ----
I need a function (in this case f();) that contains 3 memory
operations.
They are:
a) It must create an object on the heap and imediately assign data to
its elements
b) It must be able to only modify the object's elements !
c) It must be able to free the object.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
