Hello again IDL gurus,
While waiting for a reply to my previous post, I thought a bit more
about the problem and I think I figured out what the correct
procedure is: you need to call IDL_MakeStruct for each nested
structure, and assign the returned pointer to the "type" field of the
parent structure. The procedure is illustrated in the sample code
below. This sample works with IDL 4 when the program is run both
standalone and from IDL with CALL_EXTERNAL.
Could anyone verify that this is indeed the correct way to nest
structures for both IDL 4 and IDL 5?
Regards,
Stephen Kerr

s_data.sub.q = +1001;

s_tags[1].type = s; /* tell s_tags about it */
s = IDL_MakeStruct("FOO", s_tags);
printf("Almost all folks.\n");
v = IDL_ImportNamedArray("FOO",1,&one,IDL_TYP_STRUCT,
(UCHAR *) &s_data, 0, s);
s_new_data = (DATA_STRUCT *) v->value.s.arr->data;
for (i=0;i<2;i++)
for (j=0;j<2;j++)
printf("%f\n",s_new_data->mat[i][j]);

printf("%i\n", s_new_data->sub.q);
