I'm using a library which for one certain feature involves variables like so:
extern const u8 foo[];
extern const u8 bar[];
I am not allowed to rename these variables in any way.
However, I like to be able to access these variables through an array (or other similar method) so that I do not need to continually hardcode new instances of these variables into my main code.
My first attempt at creating an array is as follows:
const u8* pl[] = {
&foo,
&bar
};
This gave me the error cannot convert 'const u8 (*)[]' to 'const u8*' in initialization
, and with help elsewhere along with some Googling, I changed my array to this:
u8 (*pl)[] = {
&foo,
&bar
};
Upon compiling I now get the error scalar object 'pl' requires one element in initializer
.
Does anyone have any ideas on what I'm doing wrong? Thanks.
