If I create a struct in C and want to add them to an array that is not set to a fixed size, how is the array created?

Can one create a tempStruct which is used on ev

If you are using the older C89 standard compiler, you cannot use variable length arrays. If you use C99 then you can create variable length array. For clarification: variable-lenght doesnt mean that the array lenght can change during execution. It just means that you can set it during execution instead of fixing a value during compile time.

For eg:

CreateArray(const int numberOfElements)
{
       struct MyStruct arrayOfStructs[numberOfElements];
}

This is valid in C99 but not in C89. Check your compiler documentaion.
