This is because the compiler has incorrect knowledge about the structure.
Are you casting the array from void * to the right structure type?
Is the structure datatype declared somewhere that you can reference it?
Please post the first few lines of the function that is trying to find the size of the struct.

we know that sizeof never returns zero when used with structure
then why in this case it is returning zero
struct foo
{
char c;
};
void main()
{
struct foo f;
cout<<sizeof(f);
}

I am trying to find out ways of comparing a value from a 'c' structure to a value in another 'C' structure. the 'C' structure can be a List or liked list as it contains lot many records.
if we loop it in both the structures it is going to consume time.

Hi,
There are some bewildering sizeof() questions I have in my mind. Could anyone shed some light on this?
int main() {
printf("%d\n", sizeof(main)); // Ans: 1
}
That is, the sizeof() a function identifier though it is treated internally as a pointer gives 1 byte always, why?

icmp6_filter
icmp6_filter(3SOCKET) Sockets Library Functions icmp6_filter(3SOCKET)
NAME
icmp6_filter - Variable allocation datatype
SYNOPSIS
void ICMP6_FILTER_SETPASSALL (struct icmp6_filter *);
void ICMP6_FILTER_SETBLOCKALL (struct icmp6_filter *);
void ICMP6_FILTER_SETPASS (int, struct icmp6_filter *);
void ICMP6_FILTER_SETBLOCK (int, struct icmp6_filter *);
int ICMP6_FILTER_WILLPASS (int, const struct icmp6_filter *);
int ICMP6_FILTER_WILLBLOCK (int, const struct icmp6_filter *);
DESCRIPTION
The icmp6_filter structure is similar to the fd_set datatype used with the select() function in the sockets API. The icmp6_filter structure
is an opaque datatype and the application should not care how it is implemented. The application allocates a variable of this type, then
passes a pointer to it. Next it passes a pointer to a variable of this type to getsockopt() and setsockopt() and operates on a variable of
this type using the six macros defined below.
The SETPASSALL and SETBLOCKALL functions enable you to specify that all ICMPv6 messages are passed to the application or that all ICMPv6
messages are blocked from being passed.
The SETPASS and SETBLOCKALL functions enable you to specify that messages of a given ICMPv6 type should be passed to the application or not
passed to the application (blocked).
The WILLPASS and WILLBLOCK return true or false depending whether the specified message type is passed to the application or blocked from
being passed to the application by the filter pointed to by the second argument.
The pointer argument to all six icmp6_filter macros is a pointer to a filter that is modified by the first four macros and is examined by
ICMP6_FILTER_SETBLOCK and ICMP6_FILTER_WILLBLOCK. The first argument, (an integer), to the ICMP6_FILTER_BLOCKALL, ICMP6_FILTER_SETPASS,
ICMP6_FILTER_SETBLOCK, and ICMP6_FILTER_WILLBLOCK macros is an ICMPv6 message type, between 0 and 255.
The current filter is fetched and stored using getsockopt() and setsockopt() with a level of IPPROTO_ICMPV6 and an option name of
ICMP6_FILTER.
