Error Compiling an Deterministic Pushdown Automaton in C (DPDA)

I was reading about how to implement a DPDA and found this code in the following Internet address: http://code.zhoubot.com/, This c file implements a simple pushdown automata. The automata will read in a description of their transition function and input, perform its computation on the input, and then print their output.

The input format is like: e01:e0$:000111:a:ad:aeeb$:b0eb0:b10ce:c10ce:ce$de The input is separated by a semicolon “:”, first section is “input alphabet”, second is “stack alphabet”, then “input” and the last whole bunch are transition functions.

When trying to compile, the compiler tells me the following error:

Line 41: "error: invalid conversion from 'void *' to 'Stack *'

how I can fix this error, since I'm trying to understand code?


You are likely using a C++ compiler instead of a C one. In C it's not required (it's actually discouraged) to cast void *. In C++ it's mandatory.

Incidentally, this C FAQ answers your problem. This one explains why casting void * can be problematic.
