Fucking Confusing++

[Kintaro]

I cant get this program to work, i commented on the source more then enough so you should understand it...

Main.cpp

Code: [Select]

[flap]

if (cmdi == "exit")

cmdi is a pointer to a string, so its value will actually just be an address of location in memory. You need to use strcmp to compare the actual contents of the string with "exit":

if (strcmp(cmdi, "exit") == 0)

I found the problem..
" Microsoft Dos XP Source Code"

I think that sums it up..

... Sorry.

lol, it will be just another work of art when im finished.

[Kintaro]

Still just exits    does anyone know why <x11 fiddles in vi>...


Im an idiot, sorry i had while exitlevel == 0 because im a complete freekin retard. (Its always a stupidity bug in my programs)

   (Working (except for ver))

....

Ahhh got it... Nother stupidity problem (Gee Ex Eleven must have been really on the pills when posting that)...

Anyway how do you make everything in the cmdi string lower case after input

BASIC EQUIV:

cmdi$ = lcase$(cmdi$)


Thanks in advance!

Here is the source, luke  

Code: [Select]

[voidmain]

One way of doing it is to use the "tolower()" function. Mind you that this function will only change the case of a single character so you have to loop through your string.

Could you do me a favour and write a sample peice of code?

[voidmain]

Sure:

Code: [Select]

[Kintaro]

Thanks!

Why do old people hate ebject oreiented programming?

[voidmain]

For the same reason that young people think they know everything.

why don't you change the while statement to have it be:

while (exitlevel==0) {

?
Otherwise it will always exit because it's set at 0 default, but if it isn't 1 then it won't go through the loop.

(EDIT)
nevermind, i see someone already got to it.

Sorry.. it needed to be said.

[voidmain]

I'm not young enough yet to know *everything*.
