How do you convert void pointer to char pointer in C

Question

Ok this has been become sooo confusing to me. I just don\'t know what is wrong with this assignment:

void *pa; void *pb;
char *ptemp; char *ptemp2; 

ptemp =         


        

Answer 1

I just tried your code in a module called temp.c. I added a function called f1.

void *pa; void *pb;
char *ptemp; char *ptemp2;

f1()
{
        ptemp = (char *)pa;
        ptemp2 = (char *)pb;
}

On Linux I entered gcc -c temp.c, and this compiled with no errors or warnings.

On which OS are you trying this?
