How do I dimension a string at run-time?

[Vdcss]

How do I make this piece of code work? I have the dimension of the string at run-time...

void Sub1(int Count) {
char nrstr[Count];
.
.
.
}

or
{
int k;
k = f1();
char nrstr[k];
}

If your answer is dynamic allocation, how do I do that (define vars; add, remove items)?

#include <iostream>

void Sub1( int iElems );

int main()
{
Sub1( 100 );
return 0;
}

void Sub1( int iElems )
{
char *cTemp = new char[ iElems ];

for ( int i=0;i<iElems;i++ )
cTemp = '#';
for ( int x=0;x<iElems;x++ )
std::cout << &quot;Elem &quot;
<< x << &quot;: &quot;
<< cTemp[x] <<
std::endl;

delete [] cTemp;
}

As far as &quot;adding and removing&quot; elements from the dynamic array, this cannot be done. Once you allocate space from the heap to accomadate the size of your array, your pretty much stuck with it until you delete [] it. The flexability you are looking for can be found in a linked list data structure. Mike L.G.

In the STL, vectors can be nice too... Mike L.G.
