C compiling: "error: expected expression before"

[billy1]

Hi all,
This is my simple ansi C code:
int x, MAT[9]={};
x = nodeinfo.nodenumber;
switch(x) {
case '0':MAT[] = {1,1,2,1,0,0,0,0};
break;
case '1':MAT[] = {1,1,2,2,3,1,0,0};
break;
case '2':MAT[] = {1,2,2,1,0,0,0,0};
break;
defaultrintf("no node available\n");
}

But I'm getting this compiling error:

xx.c:12: error: expected expression before ‘{’ token
xx.c:13: error: expected expression before ‘{’ token

Can you please let me know what is wrong?

thanks.

Which line of code is line 12?

x is an int, but in the switch you're comparing it against literal characters. That's probably what it's complaining about.
