^^^^^^
Your 'array' variable is already a pointer. You should not have
another address-of operator in front of it. You are overwriting
your pointer and a bunch of static memory right after it, not
zeroing the area pointed to by 'array'.
Thanks. Somebody else already pointed out the error, but he was rather
more "teacher", didn't tell me what exactly it was, and let me find it
for myself!
Stupid mistake, but as I said, my C-fu is rusted solid :-)
Anyways, I've now got it sorted - I'll probably be posting it to the
list as an RFC very soon ...
Cheers,
Wol
