ok I am using a SWFOTEFUSS code base that compiles in C++ (which I am COMPLETELY NEW to C++), but I wanted to update my changes code from the basic that is with swfotefuss so I grabbed the snippet. When I try to compile I get these errors now:
Which the these are referring to malloc and realloc from c
To my understanding, C++ does not need these. So my question is how would I fix these:
From load changes
From delete change:
From do_addchange
Any help would be great... I'm still learning so please bare with me.
Compiling o/changes.o....
changes.c: In function `void load_changes()':
changes.c:86: invalid conversion from `void*' to `CHANGE_DATA*'
changes.c: In function `void delete_change(int)':
changes.c:144: invalid conversion from `void*' to `CHANGE_DATA*'
changes.c: In function `void do_addchange(CHAR_DATA*, const char*)':
changes.c:185: invalid conversion from `void*' to `CHANGE_DATA*'
Which the these are referring to malloc and realloc from c
To my understanding, C++ does not need these. So my question is how would I fix these:
From load changes
changes_table = malloc( sizeof (CHANGE_DATA) * (maxChanges+1) );<--------This line
for( i = 0; i < maxChanges; i++ )
{
changes_table.change = fread_string( fp );
changes_table.coder = fread_string( fp );
changes_table.date = fread_string( fp );
changes_table.mudtime = fread_number( fp );
}
From delete change:
new_table = malloc( sizeof( CHANGE_DATA ) * maxChanges );<-----This line
if( !new_table )
{
return;
}
From do_addchange
new_table = realloc( changes_table, sizeof( CHANGE_DATA ) *(maxChanges+1) );<-----This Line
if (!new_table) /* realloc failed */
{
send_to_char ("Memory allocation failed. Brace for impact.\n\r",ch);
return;
}
Any help would be great... I'm still learning so please bare with me.
