Read .ppm into One Dimensional Arrays For Red Green and Blue Values

[Remync]

I am writing a program to store a ppm into one dimensional arrays in order to manipulate the data. The image that is being read is not correct. The code is as follows:

if (strcmp (str, "P6") == 0)
 {
 fscanf(fp, "%d %d ", &(I->NCols), &(I->NRows));
  printf("\n\n******In the input image:******\n");
 printf("\nColumns=%d and Rows=%d\n", (I->NCols),(I->NRows));
 pixels =(I->NCols)*(I->NRows);
 printf("There are %d pixels\n", pixels);
 fscanf(fp, "%d ", &temp) ;
 printf("%d\n", temp);
 I->R = (int *) malloc(pixels*sizeof(int));
 I->G = (int *) malloc(pixels*sizeof(int));
 I->B = (int *) malloc(pixels*sizeof(int));
 for (row=0; row < I->NRows; row++)
 {
     for (col=0; col < I->NCols; col++)
     {
         (I->R[row*I->NCols+col]) = (unsigned char) (getc(fp));
         (I->G[row*I->NCols+col]) = (unsigned char) (getc(fp));
         (I->B[row*I->NCols+col]) = (unsigned char) (getc(fp));

     }
 }

I think that the problem lies in this portion of the above code

(I->R[row*I->NCols+col]) = (unsigned char) (getc(fp));
         (I->G[row*I->NCols+col]) = (unsigned char) (getc(fp));
         (I->B[row*I->NCols+col]) = (unsigned char) (getc(fp));

I'm not sure if I am using getc correctly. Now, I know that there are easier ways to do this. This method of one dimensional arrays is required by the assignment however. Essentially, there is a struct with items red, green and blue. Each of these is a pointer to a one dimensional array which contains only the red, green or blue values in the image. Anyway, let me know if I need to clarify and I thank anyone who can help in advance.

remync ,

Give more details on the structure of 'I' I can probably help.

In your loop you have to adjust the COLUMN value, the value from the header, that you have in your variable is the number of PIXELS ... there are 3 values per pixel, so you have to multiply the column by 3 to properly get the data.
