function prototype

[Art Cummings]

Hello all,

I'm trying to write a function prototype that includes an array of
structures. I'm not sure how to write it. I'm also not sure what the call
to a function that uses this prototype would look like. From what i've read
on the web, it needs to be a pointer to an array. I'm not sure even where
to begin. I've written function protoypes for arrays and 2d arrays but when
I write it for the structure, i get compiler errors.

any help...

Thanks
Art

Re: function prototype

Here's the code I have.

I get an undefined reference to getInfo, error.

Thanks
Art

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <conio.h //necessary for the _getch function

using namespace std;



const int SIZE = 15; //size for all arrays in student structure

struct Student
{
char fName[SIZE]; //array for first name
char lName[SIZE]; //array for last name
char attendance[SIZE]; //array for attendance
int days[SIZE]; //array for days
};

void getInfo(Student[]);


int main()
{
Student studentInfo[30]; //define an array of 30 students
getInfo(student Info);
system("PAUSE") ;
return 0;
}
void getInfo(Student &s)
{
}

Thanks Brian, we haven't dealt with vectors yet.

Re: function prototype

Thanks V.

You may need to pay a bit more attention to declarations (and what they
mean), otherwise C++ is going to be very difficult for you.

I'm re-considering that dish washing job.

Brian, I thought top posting was where you include the previous message in
your reply.
