I use the fread () function to write to my own defined structure pointer, but this reports an error. The
problem occurs where I commented.
typedef struct Student {
char *name;
} Student;
int main() {
Student stu = {12, "Danny"};
FILE *out;
if ((out = fopen("out.dat", "w")) == NULL) {
printf("ERROR\n");
return 0;
}
fwrite(&stu, sizeof(Student), 1, out);
fclose(out);
FILE *in;
if((in = fopen("out.dat", "r")) == NULL) {
printf("ERROR\n");
return 0;
}
Student *stu2;
fread(stu2, sizeof(Student), 1, in); //
printf("%s", stu2->name);
return 0;
}
