Typedef cannot be used on pointers

[samsonwilliams]

Hello,

I tried to use it like this:
typedef void * aatest;
or
typedef void* unsafe aatest;

Can't compile, please tell me how to use it correctly.

You've not really said what you're trying to do (I note this is also a copy and paste from an old thread)

However, the code snippet below uses your typedef in a couple of ways in xc and compiles.

Code: Select all

typedef void* unsafe aatest;

aatest a(aatest y)
{
    unsafe
    {
        aatest x = y+1;
        return x;
    }
}

Hopefully that's useful.
