Hi, I observed a strange behaviour (for me only) of void pointer. I wrote a code to access an integer through void pointer as below:
void *ptr; int a[2] = {1,2};
ptr = (int *)&a; ptr++; // This is giving error: Unknown Size
Why the above increment statement is giving error as i already cast the pointer to int type ?
Can anybody help me in understanding this ?

You might find it easier to get to grips with such issues on a PC; then, once you've mastered the language, you can move on to applying it in the specialist world of embedded microcontrollers...
Your right, but I like to see things happening! I do know assembly fairly well, and have used Forth for embedded. In fact I compared Arm Forth to Keil, but decided to go with C because I wanted to broaden my horizon and I have the opportunity (time) to do it.

yaaa, but your chip may not get 'signal' iN the Target Board, and could be 'signal' problem or Power not ON. Have you checked?
