Pointers to Structs
The C programming language allows you to create pointers not only to regular data types but also to structures (since a structure is a custom data type).
Declaration and initialization of a pointer looks like this:
struct <name_of_struct>
{
<field_of_struct>;
};
struct <name_of_struct>* <name_of_pointer>;
If <name_of_pointer> is a pointer to a structure,
then *(<name_of_pointer>) is the structure itself.
To access the fields of a structure through a pointer, you must use the -> operator.
Note
"->" is an analogue of the structure access operator
.
