This is not a relevant mailing list for such questions.

This is the GNU Coreutils mailing list, which is relevant for questions 
about the printf unix command.

You are asking about the printf C-library function.

While both are named the same, and also share similar functionality,
they are quite different topics.

If you reached this mailing list after reading a manual page (e.g.
typing "man printf"), then it was likely the wrong manual page.

For the unix command, try:
   man 1 printf
For the C function, try:
   man 3 printf

Other programing resources could be the GNU LibC manual:

https://www.gnu.org/software/libc/manual/html_node/Formatted-Output-Basics.html#Formatted-Output-Basics

The POSIX printf function page:
  http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/functions/printf.html

Websites such as:
  http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstdio/printf/

Or Q&A websites such as StackOverflow.com .


While I have not tried to run your code,
from a cursory look I'd suggest using "%p" when printing pointers,
and ensuring all types are correct (that is: do not ignore any compiler
warnings about incorrect types for printf).

However, we can not provide further support about programming questions
in this mailing list.


As such, I'm closing this bug.
