}I am looking for an equivalent way to specify a typecast of a pointer to

}  typedef int (*FCN_PTR) ();
}  FCN_PTR     fcn_ptr1;
}  int         (*fcn_ptr2) (); 
}
}  fcn_ptr1 = (FCN_PTR) NULL;  /* Typecast using typedef */
}  fcn_ptr2 = (???????) NULL;  /* Do Not Use the typedef.  What Goes Here? */


Sure--

   fcn_ptr2 = (int (*)()) NULL;
