Thread: strstr problem...

Okay, I have to do some mini-review for my programming class, but I haven't touched C++ in ~6months or so, so I'm a bit rusty.


I have to have the user input text, then reject it if it contains profanity.

this is what I have so far, but I can't seem to get it to work. As you can see, I have the words it's checking for in a seperate file so it's easy to update.

Code:

#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>

using namespace std;


char str[100];
string prof1, prof2, prof3, prof4, prof5;

int main()
{
	ifstream fin;

	fin.open("profanity.txt");
    char *pdest;
    int  result;

	fin >> prof1 >> prof2 >> prof3 >> prof4 >> prof5;

	string words[5] = {prof1, prof2, prof3, prof4, prof5};
	cout << "Enter text: ";
	cin >> str;

	for(int a=1; a<5; a++)
	{
    pdest = strstr( str, words[a] );

    if ( pdest != NULL )
	{
       cout << "Profanity found!";
	   return 0;
	}
    else
       cout << "No profanity found\n";
	}

	return 0;
}

any help would be appreciated. I can't figure this out, it should be pretty easy, and it's driving me nuts!
