How I change a variable of a type to another one in C?
- by drigoSkalWalker
I want to do it:
int main () {
bla bla bla
void *onetype;
switch (USER_INPUT_TYPE) {
CASE CONVERT_TO_CHAR:
convert onetype VOID TO CHAR >>> HOW???
CASE CONVERT_TO_INT:
convert onetype VOID TO INT >>> HOW???
LOT OF CASES...
}
}
Yes, I know type casting, but type casting is a 'temporary' change.
So, is there any way to accomplish it in C?
EDIT :
Stop stop stop! Please, see, what are you doing is type casting, I KNOW THIS, you are creating another variable of the desirable type like int i = (int) onetype, I don't want this, I want something else like onetype = (int) onetype, without recreate them, without allocate another variable.
Thanks a lot guys!
