Hello,
I have this structure in C:
struct cell_t {
struct coord_z3_t id; /**< cell coordinates in
the mesh */
unsigned int point[8]; /**< array of indexed points
defined */
struct cell_list_t *neighbour_list[6]; /**< cell's neighbourhood
*/
struct cell_info_t *cell_info; /**< score information
summary */
};
I've translated it in java this way:
public class cell_t extends Structure{
public coord_z3_t id;
public int point[]=new int[8];
public cell_list_t []neighbour_list[];
public cell_info_t cell_info[];
}
The last two fields (according to the C code) are an array of pointers
and a single pointer, respectively.
public Pointer[] neighbour_list = new Pointer[6];
public Pointer cell_info;
Alternatively, if you actually need to dig into neighbor_list and
cell_info:
public class cell_list_t extends Structure {
public static class ByReference extends cell_list_t implements
Structure.ByReference { }
...
}
public class cell_info_t extends Structure {
public static class ByReference extends cell_info_t implements
Structure.ByReference { }
...
}
// then your fields look like this:
public cell_list_t.ByReference[] neighbour_list = new
cell_list_t.ByReference[6];
public cell_info_t.ByReference cell_info;
THe problem I have is that in C, all the fields of the structure are
initialized later (especially the arrays), but in java, if I don't
initialize the arrays, the program doesn't work because I have to
initialize them. I don't know the size here, so I've just tried to
put the size at 1, but that causes a stack overflow error.
