segmentation error
 

Hi
I am using solaris machine in which I use gcc compile.
I am getting segmentation error in the following statement
fprintf(stream_pointer_name, "\t%c16%c16%c16%c16%c", '|','|','|','|','|');
I am trying to print '|' five times in a file at a 16 spacing gap.
Can any one tell me the reason?

Not sure....whenever I get a segmentation error, it is normally because I am trying to access a memory location which does not exist.

The segmentation violation is more likely due to something wrong with your stream pointer. There is also a problem with your output format.
Here is something that match your requirements:

Actually I was declaring a pointer n by mistake I
was not allocating the space for that pointer before use
