How to set, in google mock, a void* argument to a set of values?

I am using google mock to unit test my code, and I am trying to return, as an output argument, a set of values through a void*.

uint32_t bigEndianTestValues[BIG_ENDIAN_FIELD_MAX_ELEMENTS] = {0xDEADBEEF, 0xFFFF0000, 0x00000000, 0x00A00F10, 0x11234211};

for (int i = 0; i < BIG_ENDIAN_FIELD_MAX_ELEMENTS; ++i)
{
   EXPECT_CALL( deviceWindow, get(_,sizeof(bigEndianTestValues[0]),_,_) )
   .WillOnce(SetArgPointee<2>(bigEndianTestValues[i]))
   .RetiresOnSaturation();
}

My mock contains a method call as follows

MOCK_METHOD4(get, void(const size_t, const size_t, void*, nNIAPALS100::tStatus&));

But I get the following error

....\include\gmock/gmock-actions.h(693) : error C2100: illegal indirection
....\gmock/gmock-actions.h(369) : see reference to function template instantiation 'void testing::internal::SetArgumentPointeeAction<N,A,kIsProto>::Perform<void,std::tr1::tuple<T0,T1,T2,T3>>(const ArgumentTuple &) const' being compiled with

It seems that I need to cast the void* to an uint32_t*. Any idea how to do it?

SetArgPointee and other standard actions are type-safe. They will not allow you to do such unsafe assignment. You have to write a custom action that will do the typecasting:

ACTION_P(SetArg2ToInt32, value) { *static_cast<uint32_t*>(arg2) = value; }

...

EXPECT_CALL(deviceWindow, get(_,sizeof(bigEndianTestValues[0]),_,_))
  .WillOnce(SetArg2ToInt32(bigEndianTestValues[i]))
