C: Assigning structures

Name: Anonymous 2010-07-24 2:09

suppose we have the following type:

typedef struct {
    int bar;
    int baz;
    int foo;
} Something;


In order to do a copy, I usually do something like:

Something a, b;
...
memcpy ((void *) &a, (const void *) &b, sizeof(Something));

But also the following is legal (and far more quick to write).

Something a, b;
...
a = b;

Is there any disadvantage in doing the second one?

Oh, I see, so I have misunderstood the question. How frightfully careless of me.

No, that is a line of text on my monitor.
