I've searched around to see if I can find this answer but I can't seem to (please let me know if I'm wrong).
I am trying to use scanf to read in a byte, an unsigned int and a char in one .c file and I am trying to access this byte in a different .c file and print it out.
(I have already checked to make sure I have included all the appropriate parameters everywhere) But I keep getting errors.
The warnings are:
database.c: In function ‘addCitizen’:
database.c:23:2: warning: format ‘%hhu’ expects argument of type ‘int’, but argument 2 has type ‘byte *’ [-Wformat]
database.c:24:2: warning: format ‘%u’ expects argument of type ‘unsigned int’, but argument 2 has type ‘int *’ [-Wformat]
database.c:25:2: warning: format ‘%c’ expects argument of type ‘int’, but argument 2 has type ‘char *’ [-Wformat]
where I'm scanf'ing:
// Request loop
while (count-- != 0)
{
while (1){
// Get values from the user
int error = scanf ("%79s %hhu %u %c", tname,
&tdist, &tyear, &tgender);
addCitizen(db, tname, &tdist, &tyear, &tgender);
where I'm printing:
void addCitizen(Database *db, char *tname, byte *tdist, int *tyear, char *tgender){
//needs to find the right place in memory to put this stuff and then put it there
printf("\nName is: %79s\n", tname);
printf("District is: %hhu\n", tdist);
printf("Year of birth is: %u\n", tyear);
printf("Gender is:%c\n", tgender);
I'm not sure where I'm going wrong?
