I''m doing a village, just for fun. And I''m learning how to put textures and so, but first I have to load the bitmap, and I''m reading the OPENGL GAME PROGRAMMING book.
So, I just copied the following code from the example in the book OPENGL GAME PROGRAMMING chapter 8.Texture Mapping - An Overview of Texture Mapping
page 232-233
------------
BITMAPINFOHEADER bitmapInfoHeader;
unsigned char* bitmapData;
unsigned int texture;
unsigned char *LoadBitmapFile(char *filename, BITMAPINFOHEADER *bitmpaInfoHeader)
{
FILE *filePtr;
BITMAPFILEHEADER bitmapFileHeader;
unsigned char *bitmapImage;
int imageIdx = 0;
unsigned char tempRGB;
filePtr = fopen(filename,"rb");
if(filePtr == NULL){
return NULL;
}
fread(&bitmapFileHeader, sizeof(BITMAPFILEHEADER), 1, filePtr);
if(bitmapFileHeader.bfType != BITMAP_ID){
fclose(filePtr);
return NULL;
}
/*--------(1)-------*/
/*--------(2)-------*/
fread(bitmapInfoHeader,sizeof(BITMAPINFOHEADER),1, filePtr);
fseek(filePtr, bitmapFileHeader.bfOffBits, SEEK_SET);
/*--------(3)-------*/
bitmapImage = (unsigned *char)malloc(bitmapInfoHeader->biSizeImage);
if(!bitmapImage){
free(bitmapImage);
fclose(filePtr);
return NULL;
}
fread(bitmapImage, 1, (bitmapInfoHeader.biSizeImage), filePtr);
if(bitmapImage == NULL){
fclose(filePtr);
return NULL;
}
for(imageIdx = 0; imageIdx < (bitmapInfoHeader.biSizeImage); imageIdx += 3){
tempRGB = bitmapImage[imageIdx];
bitmapImage[imageIdx] = bitmapImage[imageIdx + 2];
bitmapImage[imageIdx + 2] = tempRGB;
}
fclose(filePtr);
return bitmapImage;
}

And these are the errors i receive on compilation, each one listed and the position in the code.
//**********ERRORS********************
(1) Error: ville.cpp(55,63):Cannot convert ''tagBITMAPINFOHEADER'' to ''void *''
(2) Error: ville.cpp(55,63):Type mismatch in parameter ''__ptr'' in call to ''fread(void *,unsigned int,unsigned int,FILE *)''
(3) Error: ville.cpp(59,33):Expression syntax
Well,, the error markings are pretty clear.. so.. can someone über help me?
Thanks//Zen.
