You are mistaken. You cannot store "char *" in a file this way. You are storing pointers which, when you get them back, happen to point to some valid location in memory, but no mystical translation is happening -- a pointer is stored as 4 or 8 bytes, the data you wanted to store was never stored.
You must use fixed-size arrays like everything else.

Just a thought that entered my mind when learning about structs.
First thought was:

struct two;
}
struct two
{
three;
}
one->two->three
would this be how you would access "three"? (1 Reply)
