Appending to the front of a string in a class...

Code:

#include <iostream.h>
#include "ooint.cpp"

main()
{
	ooint ooint1 = "100";
	cout << ooint1 << " ";
	ooint1.intcat("1");
	cout << ooint1 << " ";
	ooint1.intfcat("3");
	cout << ooint1 << " " << "\n\n";

	return 0;
}

There's my program... and in the implimentation file:

Code:

void ooint::intfcat(const char * Int1)
{
	//char Int2[(strlen(Int1))+(strlen(CString))];
	char Int2[1024];
	for (int i=0; i<=strlen(Int1); i++)
		Int2[i] = Int1[i];
	strcat(Int2,CString);
	strcpy(CString,Int2);
}

It gives me a weird error: (see attatchment on next post)

If I click Ignore, it does what I want as output:

100 1001 31001

Here's the error box:

>>>i<=strlen(Int1);

Not sure but for one, this should be:

i < strlen(Int1);

...to avoid access violations...

Now I get this:

OOINTEX caused an invalid page fault in

And then it gives me the other error box.

Would you be interested in having the whole source?

BTW: Now if I click "Ignore" it doesn't work at all, so I changed it back.

[EDIT] for (int i=0; i<=strlen(Int1); i++)
Int2[i] = Int1[i];

That bit of code is because the Int1 is a constant and it wouldn't let me use strcpy. But if I change it so that it isn't a constant anymore, then the user would have to pass two arguments to the class: ooint1.intfcat("3","3");

this might work:

Code:

class ooint
{
  public:
    ooint(const char *);
    char CString[80];
    void intcat(const char *);
    void intfcat(const char *);
};

ooint::ooint(const char * Int) 
{
  strcpy(CString, Int);
}

void ooint::intcat(const char * Int1)
{
   strcat(CString, Int1);
}

void ooint::intfcat(const char * Int1)
{
  char Int2[1024];
  strcpy(Int2, Int1);
  strcat(Int2,CString);
  strcpy(CString,Int2);
}

int main()
{
   ooint ooint1 ("100");
   cout << ooint1 << " ";
   ooint1.intcat("1");
   cout << ooint1 << " ";
   ooint1.intfcat("3");
   cout << ooint1 << " " << "\n\n";

   return 0;
}

though I don't recommend using CString as the name of a variable as it is too easily confused with the CString class from VC++, and if you are using that compiler, may be causing some of the problem.

I've attatched the files...

The reason I have it named CString is that the class I'm modifying had it named that.

None of the operator overloading will apply anymore after I finish this, I need to change that still.

The intcat works fine, but the intfcat doesn't.

I think the problem is it is trying to overwrite the const char *, but I don't know how to fix it without passing 2 identicle strings to the function, and I don't want that.

Code:

void ooint::intfcat(const char * Int1)
{
  char Int2[1024];
  strcpy(Int2, Int1);
  strcat(Int2,CString);
  strcpy(CString,Int2);
}

That works just fine... as long as it isn't in the class:

Code:

#include <string.h> // header for strings

char CString[80] = "101";

void intfcat(const char * Int1);

main()
{
	intfcat("2");
	cout << CString << endl;

	return 0;
}

void intfcat(const char * Int1)
{
  char Int2[1024];
  strcpy(Int2, Int1);
  strcat(Int2,CString);
  strcpy(CString,Int2);
}

It seems to work fine if I edit out the strcat(Int2,CString);
meaning it doesn't give the error, but it doesn't work, either.

Code:

void ooint::intfcat(const char * Int1)
{
  char Int2[1024];
  strcpy(Int2, Int1);
  strrev(CString);
  strrev(Int2);
  strcat(CString,Int2);
  strrev(CString);
}

That gives the same error as

Code:

void ooint::intfcat(const char * Int1)
{
  char Int2[1024];
  strcpy(Int2, Int1);
  strcat(Int2,CString);
  strcpy(CString,Int2);
}

[EDIT]I figured out why it has the same error... its overflowing!

If I try to use an "oostring" instead of a string... oostring is a string class:

Code:

void ooint::intfcat(const char * Int1)
{
	oostring Int2;
	oostring Int3;
	Int2 = Int1;
	Int3 = CString;
	Int2 += Int3;
	for (int i=0; Int2[i] != '\0'; i++)
		CString[i] = Int2[i];
	CString[i] = '\0';
}

Then I get:

Code:

100 1001 index out of range: 5 string: 31001
Assertion failed: 0 <= k && k < strlen(CString), file c:\program files\microsoft
 visual studio\myprojects\oostring.cpp, line 103

Please, can someone help me figure out how to get it to resize the object? It works if it is done outside of a class...

I don't want to use a vector unless I have to.
