hi everyone sorry for the stupid question but I can't figure it out how
I can get elements of a structure?
example I want to get all the elements in the structure which I don't

I am trying to find out where are inode_t, FILE and DIR structures but
I can find them?
thanks for your help in advanced
inode_t and DIR structures are not standard C. The pointer to FILE is,
but the type is intended to be opaque. There is nothing in a FILE
struct that can be assumed to be portable; it is completely
implementation-specific. If you want to play the dangerous game of
looking inside those black boxes, you may want to look to
system-specific headers. On the implementation I use most often, the
struct FILE is defined in <stdio.h>, but this is not guaranteed. On the
other hand, the non-standard struct DIR is *not* defined in the
non-standard header <dirent.h>; what is there is a typedef to a library
internal struct. The source for that internal struct is available, but
that need not be true. If you *really* need this kind of information --
think carefully before saying 'yes' -- ask in a newsgroup for your
implementation.
