pointer issues

[Plasmator]

Something like this should do it:

template <typename T, size_t U> 
size_t size(T (&arr)[U])
{
    return sizeof(arr)/sizeof(arr[0]);
}

That's kind of redundant, don't you think? You already have the size (in the form of U).
See the second snippet in my original post for what I mean.

Sorry Plasmator I didn't see your post

It is redundant - I wasn't on the ball when replying to that one... In addition to the redundant logic and the pointless naming of the array, I also got the case wrong on the U in the code and forgot to mark the parameter as const!

Come to think of it (even if I had written it correctly), my whole post was redundant even before I hit the 'Submit Reply' button.

How did you do the highlighting?

Still the rest of the post counts.

I take that back.

Happens to everyone once in a while.

I used the HL BB code tag.
