Thread: String Class

Hi all,
I'm having trouble with finding a descent string class, I don't want to use the MFC CString class, is there any other that I could use?
thanks,
DOnal

you could try using the string objects in <string.h>

There's std::string.

or

choose one of the two i guess?

I've heard about that before. Where are the details on that??

Thanks for the tips, but I can't seem to get any of the string classes to work.

e.g.
#include<String.h>

void main()
{
string mystring;
basic_string mystring1;
String mystring3;
}

none of these will work, I get "undeclared identifier" for each one.
Any Ideas or examples??
Thanks,
Donal

ps I'm using MS Visual C++ 6.0

You need to include <string>, not <string.h> then

string mystring;

will work if you bring the whole of the std namespace into global scope, or just std::string. Either -

using namespace std;

or

using std::string;

Also main returns an int not void.
