[Dev-C++] Bugs: Unallocated Memory

[Nurhidayat <dh...@ma...>]

I've found bugs(?) when trying to code linked list record. Compiler cannot
allocated base type variable within structure, but array of char work fine. 

Here is I simplified code:

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>

struct mystruct {
  char name[8];
  int age;
};

int main()
{
  mystruct *ptr;	    //test dynamic allocation
  int *page;             
  ptr  = new mystruct;   //compiler must allocate memory
  page = new int;
      
  printf("Address of name : %p\n", ptr->name);  //allocated
  printf("Address of age  : %p\n", ptr->age);   //give us null pointer, why?
  printf("Address of page : %p\n", page);       //allocated (for comparison)

  //so ...
  printf("Enter name:"); scanf("%s", ptr->name); //success
  printf("Enter age :"); scanf("%s", ptr->age);  //raised error!!!
      
  delete ptr;
  delete page;
  system("PAUSE");
  return 0;
}
