Fixing cast from pointer to integer of different size

[Arenlor]

I'm wondering if there is a way to fix this, as no where online is
there anything about it. I have a char[] that I want to cast to an int.

intptr_t or uintptr_t are preferred.

Cool, fixed it, didn't realize I'd have to include a whole new
library, but it works.

/Why/ do you want to cast a char[] (more likely, a char*) to an int?

Perhaps there's a better answer to the bigger problem.

Try intptr_t, from stdint.h, instead of int.

What are you trying to accomplish?

You have some problem that you're not telling us about. Casting a
pointer to an integer is a solution to that problem, not a goal in
itself -- and it may be the wrong solution.
