I have no idea how to use pack_fread() with variables inside a struct.

The code below illustrates one of my tries on how to do that, however it does not work :/

void vsp_map_load(char *filename)
{
    PACKFILE *rFile;
    rFile = pack_fopen(filename, "r");
    int name_len, tileset_len;
    pack_fread(&name_len, sizeof(int), rFile);
    pack_fread(&(vsp_map.name), name_len * sizeof(char), rFile);
    pack_fread(&tileset_len, sizeof(int), rFile);
    pack_fread(&(vsp_map.tileset), tileset_len * sizeof(char), rFile);
    pack_fread(&(vsp_map.w), sizeof(int), rFile);
    pack_fread(&(vsp_map.h), sizeof(int), rFile);
    pack_fread(&(vsp_map.tile), (vsp_map.w * vsp_map.h) * sizeof(TILE), rFile);
    pack_fclose(rFile);
}

Could somebody please tell me the right way of doing this?

Take off all of the &, and it should work.

Hmm, on second thought... maybe that isn't the problem...

Yes, it is. Take the &s off of the variables which are arrays or pointers, and it will work. Leave them on the others.

What type is vsp_map? Is it a pointer?
EDIT:
CGames: if that were the case, he should DEFINATELY be getting values for things like w and h

He didn't say he wasn't getting values for things like name_len, w, and h. He just said "does not work"

It still errors ;_;

void vsp_map_load(char *filename)
{
    PACKFILE *rFile;
    rFile = pack_fopen(filename, "r");
    int name_len, tileset_len;
    pack_fread(&name_len, sizeof(int), rFile);
    pack_fread(vsp_map.name, name_len * sizeof(char), rFile);
    pack_fread(&tileset_len, sizeof(int), rFile);
    pack_fread(vsp_map.tileset, tileset_len * sizeof(char), rFile);
    pack_fread(&(vsp_map.w), sizeof(int), rFile);
    pack_fread(&(vsp_map.h), sizeof(int), rFile);
    pack_fread(vsp_map.tile, (vsp_map.w * vsp_map.h) * sizeof(TILE), rFile);
    pack_fclose(rFile);
}

When I only read the first int it works alright but when I try to read the string it crashes.

EDIT:

This is vsp_map:

typedef struct MAP
{
    char *name;
    char *tileset;
    int w;
    int h;
    struct TILE * tile;
}MAP;

MAP vsp_map;

You forgot to allocate memory for the variables

Heh. You need to read up on Pointers, my young friend. For things like name and tileset and tile you need to do things first:
FIRST you need to find out how long the saved "name" is, then you need to allocate memory for it, then you can read/copy it. Here's an example:
EDIT: Oops, didn't see you read in the length of the name, new code:

vsp_map.name = new char [ name_len + 1 ]; //+1 to allow for null-character
pack_fread(vsp_map.name, name_len * sizeof(char), rFile);

You need to do equivalent stuff for your other pointers.

Your other data SHOULD be fine. Check everything that ISN'T a pointer and see if you're getting correct data.

-_-

I can't believe it was that simple. Sad thing is, this is the second time this happened to me this week.

Oh well, hopefully I won't do it again

Thanks guys
