How to make generic function using void * in c?

Question

I have an incr function to increment the value by 1 I want to make it generic,because I don\'t want to make different functions for the same functi

Answer 1

Example for using "Generic" swap.

This code swaps two blocks of memory.

void memswap_arr(void* p1, void* p2, size_t size)
{      
      size_t         i;
      char* pc1= (char*)p1;
      char* pc2= (char*)p2;
      char  ch;

      for (i= 0; i

And you call it like this:

int main() {
     int i1,i2;
     double d1,d2;
     i1= 10; i2= 20;
     d1= 1.12; d2= 2.23;
     memswap_arr(&i1,&i2,sizeof(int));     //I use memswap_arr to swap two integers
     printf("i1==%d i2==%d \n",i1,i2);     //I use the SAME function to swap two doubles
     memswap_arr(&d1,&d2,sizeof(double));      
     printf("d1==%f d2==%f \n",d1,d2);
     return 0;
}

I think that this should give you an idea of how to use one function for different data types.
