Erroneous Warning '->' Is Used With A Non-pointer (use '.' Instead)

[Andrew Leiper 0]

Hi Pavel,

 

It's me again I am afraid

 

boostc v7.01

PIC18F2525

 

warning: '->' is used with a non-pointer (use '.' instead)

If I avoid using the pTestStruct typedef it compiles OK.

 

 

//***********************

#include <system.h>

 

typedef struct {

char kw[5];

} TTestStruct;

typedef TTestStruct* pTestStruct;

 

typedef struct {

pTestStruct k; //k is the 128 bit key.

} TParams;

 

TParams XXP;

 

void main(void)

{

char p;

 

p = XXP.k->kw[0]; //Warning here

 

while(1);

}

 

//***********************

Hi Andrew,

 

No warnings for me using PIC18F4580.

 

void main()

{
char p;

p = XXP.k->kw[0]; //Warning here
05CE  5020		  MOVF gbl_XXP+D'1', W
05D0  6EEA		  MOVWF FSR0H
05D2  501F		  MOVF gbl_XXP, W
05D4  6EE9		  MOVWF FSR0L
05D6  50EF		  MOVF INDF0, W
05D8  6E25		  MOVWF main_1_p

 

Cheers

I spoke too soon. Turn on All Warnings and you get the warning. Doh!
