Passing string to a c-struct member of type void*

[Nicholas Yue]

Hi,

  I have the following struct in C

======================

struct DataStruct

{

    const char *name;

    const void *data;

    int type;

    int arraylength;

    size_t count;

    int flags;

};

======================

  I am trying to pass a string/(char *) to data. What is the correct approach ? I believe the other parameters are being passed successfully

My attempt

======================

var params [2]C.struct_DataStruct

params[0].name = C.CString("type")

// cstr := C.CString("apistream")

// params[0].data = unsafe.Pointer(&cstr)

params[0]._type = C.int(0)

params[0].arraylength = C.int(0)

params[0].flags = C.int(0)

======================

Cheers

params[0].data = unsafe.Pointer(cstr)

Note no & cuz cstr is already a pointer and &cstr is a pointer to a pointer
