Hi!

I have got:

"
BMAP* bmap;
bmap = bmap_create("test.png");
"

How can I get the name of the bmap ("test.png") out of my bmap-pointer?

Code:

---

bmap->link->name

---

It's a pointer to a char array.

There's a problem...

Code:

---

BMAP* mybmap;
char* mychar;

function main()
{
	mybmap = bmap_create("Testbild.png");
	mychar = mybmap->link->name;
} 

---

error: " 'name': is not a member of" "
...does not make sense

Code:

---

BMAP* mybmap;
char* mychar;

function main()
{
	mybmap = bmap_create("Testbild.png");
	mychar = mybmap->link.name;
} 

---

error: application shuts down.
In the acklog.txt I found: "empty pointer in main"


Code:

---

BMAP* mybmap;
char* mychar[50];

function main()
{
	mybmap = bmap_create("Testbild.png");
	mychar[0] = mybmap->link.name;
}

That works...but I cannot copy the char into a string of a text...

The problem is, that you create the bitmap at runtime. name contains only the name of an object, like when you name the object in WED (EDIT: That's just a guess of mine!!). I don't know how to retrieve the filename. Have a look for yourself in atypes.h. The last code you wrote is nonsense. You're declaring an array of 50 char pointers. The second code example should work. Are you sure these lines are producing the crash? Or have anything else behind these lines?

Well...you are right.

I have just checked it again..it is working..but the resulting char seems really to be empty...I tried this.

Code:

---

TEXT* Temp_Txt =
{
	flags = VISIBLE;
	string = "             ";
}
BMAP* mybmap;
char* mychar;

function main()
{
	mybmap = bmap_create("Testbild.png");
	mychar = mybmap->link.name;
	str_cpy((Temp_Txt.pstring)[0],mychar);
}  

---

The error is again: "empty pointer in lite-c"

Perhaps it is really empty bthe bmap is created at runtime.

Yes, of course it's empty as you created the bitmap at runtime. I was just a guess of mine, that it could contain the filename.
