I am trying to initialize an array of an array of structs in C. Is this possible?
Example to illustrate the issue (does not compile):
typedef struct myStruct
{
int row;
int cols;
} myStruct;
myStruct dataSets[][] =
{
myStruct dataSet1[]
{
{0,1},
{0,2},
{0,3},
},
myStruct dataSet2[]
{
{1,1},
{1,2},
{1,3},
}
};
When initializing a multidimensional array, only the outer array dimension may be omitted. You also don't need to specify the type for nested initializers as the type is implied from context:
myStruct dataSets[][3] =
{
{
{0,1},
{0,2},
{0,3},
},
{
{1,1},
{1,2},
{1,3},
}
};
