Hi all,

Im trying to create a linked-list struct in C, and retuning a pointer to=

it in D, but everytime I try to access the data it faults in D , though =
in =

C it works as expected.

Also trying to pass BackTrace* as a parameter to FillStruct and using D =
to =

allocate a BackTrace struct fails with same error.

Files attached, am I missing something obvious ?

dmc -c foo.c
dmd bar.d foo.obj

bar.exe

Thanks,
Charlie

C and I figured it out.

Simply replace %s with %.*s.  D seems to be converting the c array to a 
d array when its passed into printf.

If you think that bt might be null, then you MUST NOT check bt.curr, 
since any attempt to read the value of this will result in null pointer 
dereferenece.  Return from main() when you detect null, or put the 
while() inside an else... of the if statement, or just include a bt != 
null test in the while.

Yes your , it was simplied for the example

I was also having trouble because in my D import file i used

     struct tagBackTraceItem
     {

         char fileName[MAX_PATH+1];
	  char symName[4096];
         int lineNumber;
         BackTraceItem * next;
     };


And in my actual header file I was using

typedef struct tagBackTraceItem{
	char symName[4096];
	char fileName[MAX_PATH +1];
	int lineNumber;
	struct tagBackTraceItem* next;
} BackTraceItem;



The order of the fields are not the same, I was getting the symName valu=
e =

stored in the D fileName variable.
