Get pointer on var obtained via interface

大城市里の小女人 提交于 2021-02-11 12:09:28
问题 In the following code var a int var b interface{} b = a fmt.Printf("%T, %T \n", a, &a) fmt.Printf("%T, %T \n", b, &b) output: int, *int int, *interface {} I would expect the type of &b to be a pointer on int. I have two questions: 1) Why is it a pointer on interface{} ? 2) How could I get a pointer on the original type ? 回答1: &b => this is the address operator applied on the variable b , whose type is interface{} . So &b will be a pointer of type *interface{} , pointing to the variable b . If

In C (also C++), how '&' operator works as both address operator and bitwise operator ? As operator overloading is not supported by C

问题 The operator '&' can be used in both of following way int a; scanf("%d",&a); and printf("%d",1&2) . But different behaviour (for first as address operator and second time as bit-wise operator). I know operator overloading is not there in C. Then how it works ?. Also highlight for c++. 回答1: In "C" language, operators have different meaning when they are used as prefix to expression, suffix to expression or "infix" (between two expressions). Consider '*', which performs multiplication as 'infix

Does it not matter? And if not, why? Is one

AddressOf alternative in C#

Could anyboby help me with the alternative solution in C# regarding AddressOf operator in VB6 ? AddressOf returns a long value. What way can I get the output in C#? Expanding on Harper Shelby's answer, yes it can be done, but it's generally a code smell to do so in .NET. To get the address of a variable in C#, you can use C-style pointer (*) /address (&) / dereference (->) syntax. In order to do this, you will have to compile the app with the /unsafe compiler switch, as you're bouncing out of the safety net of managed code as soon as you start dealing with memory addresses directly. The sample

Can an address be assigned to a variable in C?

旧城冷巷雨未停 提交于 2019-12-01 00:24:51
Is it possible to assign a variable the address you want, in the memory? I tried to do so but I am getting an error as "Lvalue required as left operand of assignment". int main() { int i = 10; &i = 7200; printf("i=%d address=%u", i, &i); } What is wrong with my approach? Is there any way in C in which we can assign an address we want, to a variable? Not directly. You can do this though : int* i = 7200; .. and then use i (ie. *i = 10) but you will most likely get a crash. This is only meaningful when doing low level development - device drivers, etc... with known memory addreses. Assuming you
