Making string functions...

Posted: Wed Nov 16, 2005 12:49 pm

I'm having trouble making string functions.

For example:

Code:

printf("hello world");

works just fine... But I want to make my own string functions...

Code:

void MyStringFunc(string s){ // instead of string, i could use type char *s[]
// do something with strign here
}

main(){
MyStringFunc("Hello world");
}

But that doesn't work. I get errors about cannot make a pointer to a constant. How come you can pass a constant "hello world" to printf but not to my own function? How can I define a function to accept a "string" in the function call?

Thanks,
Sal

CCS is not ansi C. We have no pointers to const.
