initialization from incompatible pointer type - now what?

Question

I'm working in Eclipse Keppler with AVR plugin programming in C++.

The following is the issue: The pointer to the array *midiPrioMemList creates an error. Is it because midiPrioMemlist points to an uint8_t? What should it be then, an uint16_t does not quite solve the issue... any help or explanation is welcome :-) The error shown is "initialization from incompatible pointer type"

uint8_t midiPrioMem0[priorityMemSize] = "1234567890";
uint8_t midiPrioMem1[priorityMemSize] = "qwertyuiop";
uint8_t midiPrioMem2[priorityMemSize] = "abcdefghij";

uint8_t *midiPrioMemList[] = {&midiPrioMem0, &midiPrioMem1, &midiPrioMem2};

Answer 1

&midiPrioMem0 degrades into a uint8_t**. midiPrioMem0 is an array of uint8_t, which will degrade into a uint8_t*. Simply remove the &.
