Write pointer to file in C

Question

I have a structure:

typedef struct student {
  char *name;
  char *surname;
  int age;
} Student;

I need to write the structure into a bina

Answer 1

You will have to do some extra work to write out the data pointed to by the structure elements - probably just write it out element by element.

Alternatively change your structure to something like this:

typedef struct
{
    char name[MAX_NAME_LEN];
    char surname[MAX_SURNAME_LEN];
    int age;
} Student;
