ANSI/ISO 9899-1990 6.5.2.1 states that ``a pointer to astructure object, suitably converted, points to its initial member''.Hence, a pointer to a CIRCLE in your case can be suitably converted topoint to a POINT.<p>This question is becoming a more and more popular question lately.It may be time to update the FAQ. Comments and corrections to thefollowing are welcome.<p>Q. How can I implement object-oriented (OO) inheritance in C withstructures?<p>A. First, make sure that using an OO language (such as C++) is not agood option. The C language was not designed with OO in mind, andso facilities to support OO programming are limited. Think throughjust what OO features you will need, and think about how you expectto implement them in C.<p>That said, it is possible to implement single inheritance in C bynesting a structure inside of a structure. This techniques workssince a pointer to a structure object, when suitably converted,points to its initial member. Thus, single inheritance of a ``parent''structure is accomplished by creating a new ``child'' structure whoseinitial member is the same type as the ``parent''. The followingexample (thanks to Wayne O. Cochran) illustrates how this is done.<p><pre>typedef struct { int x; int y;} point;typedef struct { point center; int radius;} circle;void init_point(point *p, int x, int y){ p->x = x; p->y = y;}void init_circle(circle *c, int x, int y, int r){ init_point((void *)c, x, y); c->radius = r;}</pre><p>In this example, we see that `circle' inherits from `point' theinteger members `x' and `y'. Note that the following function isinvalid<p><pre>void bad_init_circle(circle *c, int x, int y, int r){ c->x = x; /* should be ((point *)c)->x = x; */ c->y = y; /* should be ((point *)c)->y = y; */ c->radius = r;}</pre><p>since the pointer to circle `c' has not yet been suitably convertedto point to the type of its first member.<p> References:<br>ANSI Sec. 3.5.2.1<br>ISO Sec. 6.5.2.1<p>-- <br>James C.
