What you're talking about is something long these lines: a=malloc(chunk); memcpy( chunk, SP, size); SP=chunk; The only way you "know" what's on your stack is by the variable declarations you've made in your code. The stack, wherever it is, does not contain any type info. /Per Jessen, Zurich - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-c-programming" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
