Assuming that you're doing this as a learning experience (otherwise,
just use std::string)

You cannot initialize members like this. Remember that the members
don't actually exist outside of instances of your class.

Try this:
SString::SString(int capacity=50)
: count_(0), capacity_(capacity), str(new char[capacity_])
{
}

Even if you still don't want to use std::string, might I suggest using
std::vector<char> for your internal storage, instead of a raw character
array.
