Hey! Cut me some slack! I'm doing the best I can! :-)
Wadaya want for nuttin'? :-)
But seriously folks, someday unprotoize will take this:
void *(*foobar (int, float))(float, struct s*);
struct s {
double (*func_ptr[10]) (char, enum e);
} svar;
void *vp;
void f () { svar.func_ptr[3] = (double (*)(char, enum e)) vp; }
and turn it into this:
void *(*foobar ())();
struct s {
double (*func_ptr[10]) ();
} svar;
void *vp;
void f () { svar.func_ptr[3] = (double (*)()) vp; }
But don't hold your breath.
