warning C6305: potential mismatch between sizeof and countof quantities
This warning indicates that a variable holding a sizeof result is being added to or subtracted from a pointer or countof expression. This will cause unexpected scaling in pointer arithmetic.
Example
The following code generates this warning:
void f(int *p)
{
int cb=sizeof(int);
//code...
p +=cb; // warning 6305
}
To correct this warning, use the following code:
void f(int *p)
{
// code...
p += 1;
}
