invalid conversion from int to file

[fazulu deen]

Hi all,

For the following code :

file_ptr = fopen("pass_fail.txt", "a"); // error line 393

fdisplay(file_ptr, "Test Passed");

fclose(file_ptr);

resa = resa + 1;

}

else

{


printf("\nTEST FAILED\n\n\n");

file_ptr = fopen("pass_fail.txt", "a"); //error line 402

fdisplay(file_ptr, "Test Failed");

fclose(file_ptr);

}

}

else

{

if( vube_n.read() == 1 )

{


printf("\nTEST PASSED\n\n\n");

file_ptr = fopen("pass_fail.txt", "a");

fdisplay(file_ptr, "Test Passed");

fclose(file_ptr);

resa = resa + 1;

}

else

{



printf("\nTEST FAILED\n\n\n");

file_ptr = fopen("pass_fail.txt", "a");

fdisplay(file_ptr, "Test Failed");

fclose(file_ptr);

}

}

}

I am getting the error as:
testbench.h: In member function `void
testbench::always_process_238()':
# testbench.h:393: invalid conversion from `FILE*' to `int'
# testbench.h:394: `fdisplay' undeclared (first use this function)

# testbench.h:423: invalid conversion from `FILE*' to `int'
# testbench.h:425: invalid conversion from `int' to `FILE*'

How to resolve the above error??where is the mistake??

What have you got file_ptr declared as? It should be

FILE *file_ptr;

I'm guessing due to all the type conversion errors you're getting that
you have it declared as an int.

hai,

Thanks...its really worked ....but the following:


fdisplay(file_ptr, "Test Passed");

giving error as..

`fdisplay' undeclared (first use this function)
Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each function it
appears in.)

pls help me to solve..

I haven't a clue what fdisplay does, it's not part of either the C or C
++ standard library as far as I know.

The reason it can't find the function is because you're making a call
to it, but the compiler can't find it. So if you know what libraries
and headers it's contained in then give that information to the
compiler and it will stop giving you the warning.
