Frustrating Compiling Problem

[Improzigw]

Hello all
I have come to you with a problem. I have an assignment where I have to make a program that stores information in Structures and the structures are held in an array. I have been working for day, I'm not a programmer thus it's going slow as hell for me.
Anyway, I get what I believe all the code needed, ready for some debugging an I get an error I cannot fix.

It shows undefined reference because the functions showFleet, addcar are not "call by reference " functions.

[Improzigw]

When I add the Ampersand to the code as you have I get a syntax error.

[Arbus]

oops sorry, I made a mistake. You cannot have reference to an array. So remove the &.
And also remove it in line 58 and also in lines 202, 204.

addCar(fleet[i]);

So the fleet[] in the main will not be modified by addcar() or any other function.

[Improzigw]

Sorry I still don't understand.

Do I just have to delete the &'s from line 58, 202, 204?

[Arbus]

Yes, by doing so you won't get those errors.

[Improzigw]

I deleted the 3 &'s and I got this

Nobody in they right mind should write 200+ lines of code before compiling the code. 10-20 lines is more like it with fixed data in code and simple printf instead fancy stuff. BTW (*variable_pointer).record is same as variable_pointer->record and generally thought to be more readable.

You must be sure that you have old functions working, then add one more thing to code and test again. For me 10 times the time of coding for debugging and testing looks about right.

A quick check on your code shows extra '}' between lines 196-197.
Hope that fixes it.

[yan0]

Sorry for the double post. getDate() is also missing a '}' at 160-161.
That last '}' at line 161 is intended for the else-if.

Try formatting your code well. It'll do you good to be neat.
