[solved] C code support and 2D array

Feedback & Bugs
#1

Hello,

I have a 2D array char g[height][width] in my main().
And i want to call void affect(int height, int width, char g[height][width])
When I write affect(height, width, g);, the code support tells me :

No matching function for call to ‘affect’

main.c:173:9: note: candidate function not viable: no known conversion from ‘char [height][width]’ to ‘char (*)[width]’ for 3rd argument

I am not an expert, so maybe there’s something wrong that I don’t see ?
Thanks for your help !

What you describe is exactly the following, which does not raise any compilation error.

void affect(int height, int width, char g[height][width]) {}

int main() {
  int height, width;
  char g[height][width];
  affect(height, width, g);
  return 0;
}

Ok thanks, that’s what I thought.
So I guess I should just ignore the warning message

The issue is that there is a syntax error in the ide, even though it’s not actually an error

#5

Oh ok, it’s an error of the new CG IDE (that’s what you meant by “code support”)…

Hello,

clangd was updated some weeks ago, and it seems this issue was fixed in the new version.

Thanks for reporting it!
