No surprise there. However, you probably should have given it
declare PasswordList as pointer to struct pwlistentry
The difference?
pwlistentry (*PasswordList)[20] = NULL
declares PasswordList as pointing to an array of 20 pwlistentry
structures, so you would need do dereference it twice, e.g. with
(*PasswordList)[i]
or
PasswordList[0][i]
And
sizeof(*PasswordList)
would be equal to
20 * sizeof(pwlistentry)
so
PasswordList++
would increment PasswordList by
20 * sizeof(pwlistentry)
bytes.
