How to assign char array in struct inline?

Question

I'm trying to do something like this:

struct SomeStruct {
    const char *bytes;
    const char *desc;
};

SomeStruct example = { { 0x10, 0x11, 0x12, 0x13 }, "10-13" };

Why isn't this working?

Answer 1

Probably because { 0x10, 0x11, 0x12, 0x13 } is an array of char, not a pointer to char.

Try SomeStruct example = { "\x10\x11\x12\x13", "10-13" }; instead.
