passing a multi-dimensional array to a function

[aryan1]

Below are two functions:

void printGraph(const int* topology, int dimSize)
{
    for(int rowIndex = 0; rowIndex < dimSize; rowIndex++)
    {
        for(int columnIndex = 0; columnIndex < dimSize; columnIndex++)
        {
            cout << *(topology + rowIndex*dimSize + columnIndex) << "\t";
        }

        cout << endl;
    }
}

void printGadagGraphAndEdgesInGADAG(EdgeSet* edgesInGADAG, const int gadagGraph[][MAX_VERTICES], int numberOfNodes)
{
    cout << endl;
    cout << endl;
    cout << "GADAG:" << endl;
    cout << endl;

    for(int i = 0; i < numberOfNodes; i++)
    {
        for(int j = 0; j < numberOfNodes; j++)
        {
            cout << gadagGraph[i][j] << "\t";
        }

        cout << endl;
    }

    cout << endl;

    size_t setSize = edgesInGADAG->size();

    cout << "EDGES In GADAG:" << endl;
    cout << endl;

    for( size_t i = 0; i < setSize; i++)
    {
        if( edgesInGADAG->at(i) )
        {
            cout << "Source vertex: " << edgesInGADAG->at(i)->srcVertex->vIndex;
            cout << "    Dest vertex: " << edgesInGADAG->at(i)->dstVertex->vIndex << endl;
        }

    }
}

When running the following statements in given order:

printGraph(&gadagGraph[0][0], numberOfNodes);

printGadagGraphAndEdgesInGADAG(&edgesInGADAG, gadagGraph, numberOfNodes);

The output from printGraph() is as follows:

0 1 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0

The output from printGadagGraphAndEdgesInGADAG() is as follows (This is the correct output):

0 1 0 0 0 0
0 0 1 1 0 0
1 0 0 0 0 0
0 1 0 0 1 0
0 0 0 0 0 1
0 0 0 1 0 0

gadagGraph is defined as follows and modified accordingly after its definition:

int gadagGraph[MAX_VERTICES][MAX_VERTICES] = {0};

I could not succeed to create a stand alone application in which printGraph() fails to print the square matrix in a wrong way.

For example, the following code works fine:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

void printGraph(const int* topology, int dimSize);

int main()
{
  int gadagGraph[3][3] = {{0, 1, 1}, {1, 1, 0}, {0, 1, 0}};

  printGraph(&gadagGraph[0][0], 3);

  return 0;
}

void printGraph(const int* topology, int dimSize)
{
    for(int rowIndex = 0; rowIndex < dimSize; rowIndex++)
    {
        for(int columnIndex = 0; columnIndex < dimSize; columnIndex++)
        {
            cout << *(topology + rowIndex*dimSize + columnIndex) << "\t";
        }

        cout << endl;
    }
}

The problem is with the former code only.

Thanks.
