Hey guys, I'm trying simply to print the property called "NodeKind" within my syntax tree. It's declared as such:

typedef enum {VarK,IdK,OpK,ConstK,ComK} NodeKind;

Every node in my tree has a "kind" pointer. But when I try to use the following print statement, nothing is printed:

printf("%s", ptree->kind);

Is there a special way to print out special types like this? Thanks to anyone for any help!

An enum is a list of integer values, not a list of strings.

You're lucky that didn't segfault on you. Since enums start with 0 and increase sequentially (unless you change it), you can create a static array of strings and use the value of the type as an index into the array.
