If you do intend to use an expression like this, then indicate that this is so by a cast:
(359) illegal conversion between pointer types
A pointer of one type (i.e. pointing to a particular kind of object) has been converted into a pointer
of a different type. This will usually mean you have used the wrong variable, but if this is genuinely
what you want to do, use a typecast to inform the compiler that you want the conversion and the
warning will be suppressed, e.g.:
This is common way of accessing bytes within a multi-byte variable. To indicate that this is the
intended operation of the program, use a cast:
This warning may also occur when converting between pointers to objects which have the same type,
but which have different qualifiers, e.g.:
If the default type for string literals is const char *, then this warning is quite valid. This should
be written:
Omitting a qualifier from a pointer type is often disastrous, but almost certainly not what you intend.

int * ip;
int i;
i = ip;
i = (int)ip;
long input;
char * cp;
cp = &input; /* is this correct? */
cp = (char *)&input; /* that’s better */
char * cp;
/* yes, but what sort of characters? */
cp = “I am a string of characters”;
const char * cp;
cp = “I am a string of characters”; /* that’s better */
/* woops -- did you mean i = *ip ? */
