QUESTION
If pointer points to a particular datatype, how does compiler knows (translates) all the properties (size,..., what are the others?) of that specific datatype?
If I have for example:
char* foo[] = {"abc", "123", "def"};
, then the compiler must make double pointer (pointer to pointer) in order to have this array (of addresses) of arrays (of chars).
But why is not rather datatype void*
(as it is addressing -address datatype is void - to string), instead of datatype char
?
As how i understand it right now - no matter how many address it has to dereference (char**, char***, ...), the datatype declared is for the VALUE finally find. So I understand it as a 'backstop' in the path, by finding the actual value by inspecting the final value size. So once the compiler derefence all the references - the path it makes - then it ONLY knows it find the value, because it is one byte long and terminated by null character - as char is (instead of continue dereferencing an address, which is 8 bytes long).
So the question is, how does compiler know a particular datatype. On what property does compiler decide what it is and how long it is. Does it make decision on something else? Or Is my conception correct?
PS: pointer arithmetic is not needed in this example.

foo
is an array of pointers to chars. (It is not a double pointer)
The elements in foo
are pointers to chars (written char*
). That is the type of the elements in the array. The elements in the array are not void*
, they are char*
. So the type of the elements in the array is written as char*
.
char*
means "pointer to char
" but char*
is also a perfectly valid data type by itself. It isn't the same as void*
. You can have pointers to char*
(written char**
), arrays of char*
, and so on.
