Hello,
I am having a problem sending float parameter to a function in another
c file with its declaration in a common header file. When I send the
float with value 1.00000000, the receiving function gets 0. I suppose
the float value gets converted to double and then back to float with
only lower half of double (i.e. 0).
I am using ANSI C declaration. Does anyone know how to fix this. I am
running it on windows at the moment but i believe gcc on linux has the
same problem.

It is impossible from your description to even hazard a guess. Passing
float 9and other floating point) variables to functions is such
meat-and-potatoes stuff that you may be the only person who can't do it.
The only thing in your post that is at all suggestive of your problem
is "with its declaration in a common header file." Wherever your
defining declaration is, it does not belong in a header. If you must,
for some reason, declare files in a header, at least declare them extern
and have a defining declaration in one of your non-header translation units. ay******@gmail. com wrote:

That's not how conversions work.

Create and post the smallest C program
which exhibits your problem.

You don't send parameters to functions, you pass them. You send messages
to objects, which C doesn't have (at least, not built-in).

Show code. You probably either declared the function wrong (or even more
likely, not at all), or call it wrong. But show code if you want us to
tell you which.

This might be a really simple question, but here goes: How can I pass an
array to a function and have the function put values into that array? Some
code to clearify (mat is a matrix class)
float m;
mat = matX * matZ * matT;
mat.getElements( m );
Render.setMeshTransform( m );

I have read several interesting posts on passing structures to C dlls, but none seem to cover the following case. The structure (as seen in C) is as follows:

Does the following program exhibit undefined behavior? Specifically,
does passing a struct by value cause undefined behavior if that struct
has as a member a pointer that has been passed to free()?

Hello, I am new to C++ and am struggling with the application of passing by reference. I think I understand the concept, but I can't get the output I want from my code. Specifically, in my code below, I am trying to return the number of coins, but I am returning the address locations instead (I think). I would appreciate any help giving me a hint or two in the right direction. Thanks.

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
