Beginner C++ Question
- by Donal Rafferty
I have followed the code example here
toupper c++ example
And implemented it in my own code as follows
void CharString::MakeUpper()
{
char* str[strlen(m_pString)];
int i=0;
str[strlen(m_pString)]=m_pString;
char* c;
while (str[i])
{
c=str[i];
putchar (toupper(c));
i++;
}
}
But this gives me the following compiler error
CharString.cpp: In member function 'void CharString::MakeUpper()':
CharString.cpp:276: error: invalid conversion from 'char*' to 'int'
CharString.cpp:276: error: initializing argument 1of 'int toupper(int)'
CharString.cpp: In member function 'void CharString::MakeLower()':
This is line 276
putchar (toupper(c));
I understand that toupper is looking for int as a parameter and returns an int also, is that the problem? If so how does the example work?
