variable length arrays as arguments to functions

["Maarten Speekenbrink" <M dot Speekenbrink at uva dot nl>]

I am trying to write a function in c++ that takes a square matrix of variable dimension as its argument. I read in the manual that this should be possible in g++. However, I am experiencing some trouble. I am a novice in c++, so it could be in my code or in the compiler. For instance, when I try the code below, I get an error for the function declaration that N is not specified. Is there a way to write functions for variable-size two dimensional arrays? (I am using the Mingw port of g++). 
Thanks for your help,
Maarten

// Program

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

void MyFunc(int N, float my_matrix[N][N])

int main()
{
    float Q[5][5] = {
        {0.90, 0.85, 0.70, 0.85, 0.70},
        {0.85, 0.90, 0.70, 0.85, 0.70},
        {0.60, 0.60, 0.90, 0.60, 0.60},
        {0.60, 0.60, 0.60, 0.90, 0.60},
        {0.50, 0.50, 0.50, 0.50, 0.50}
    };

    MyFunc(5, Q);

    return 0;

}

void MyFunc(int N, float my_matrix[N][N])
{

    for (int i=0; i<N; i++){
        float sum = 0;
	  for (int j=0; j<N; j++) {
            sum = sum + Q[i][j];
        }
        cout << "Rowsum is: " << sum << '\n';
    }
}
