String manipulation

[kook04]

Hello all.

This is a beginner question, but I am a Java programmer, and String manipulation in C++ just isn't the same. My question is this:

Is there a way to convert an array of characters to a &quot;basic string&quot;? I.E. the <string> class has functions that I would like to use like find( ), etc, and I need to convert in order to do so.

Thanks everyone.

I have not used <string> for a few years but I believe sprintf(your_string,&quot;%s&quot;,your_character_array); will still work with it. I am not 100% though. I have been using CString for a while now.

#include<string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
string x;
x=&quot;hello &quot;;
x+=&quot;world&quot;;
if(x==&quot;hello world&quot{.....}
int i=x.find(world);
if(i!=-1){....}
return 0;

For strings you have three posibities:
- char* and char[] (or LPSTR)
- string from <string> na dnamespace std
- CString in MFC from <afx.h>

The most convenient for operations is I think is CString.(my oppinion)

Don't forget, CSrting yoou can;t use without using MFC. The portable one is string. John Fill
