Do you mean deprecated? If so, you're wrong. If not, please elaborate.

how to write program with void as data type
void pointer can point any type of data.
Example:
void* voidPtr; //void pointer
int iVal=10;
char cVal='a';
voidPtr=&iVal; //void pointer pointing to int type
printf("num=%d",*(int*)voidPtr); //casting (void* to int*)
voidPtr=&cVal; //void pointer pointing to char type
printf("\nchar=%c",*(char*)voidPtr); //casting(void* to char*)you can cast void* to any other pointer type.

Any other object pointer type. void* isn't compatible with function pointers, for example.
