Hi,
This is the part of the code am trying to compile to :
void Server::respond ToClient ( std::string response )
{
....
....
if ((numbytes = sendto ( sockFd_ , response , sizeof(response ) , 0,
(struct sockaddr *)&clientAddr, sizeof (clientAddr))) == -1){
perror ("sendto");
exit (1) ;
}
....
}
This is the function prototype :
ssize_t sendto(int socket, const void *message, size_t length,
int flags, const struct sockaddr *dest_addr,
socklen_t dest_len);
Not sure how to go about typecasting the 'std::string' to 'const void
*' .
Thanks in advance ,

You might want to consider passing a const reference to avoid
unnecessary copying:
void Server::respond ToClient (std::string const& response)
{ ... ... if ((numbytes = sendto ( sockFd_ , response , sizeof(response ) , 0, (struct sockaddr *)&clientAddr, sizeof (clientAddr))) == -1){ perror ("sendto"); exit (1) ; } .... }
This is the function prototype : ssize_t sendto(int socket, const void *message, size_t length, int flags, const struct sockaddr *dest_addr, socklen_t dest_len);

You do not. You pass the data of the string and the length:
sendto (sockFd_, response.data (), response.length (), ...

To add a general point to the answers you've already got: the compiler
is your friend. Typecasting is not for situations where you are not
sure how to go about something. Using a cast amounts to silencing the
compiler and overruling its understanding of the language rules.
Therefore, you should only cast when you know exactly what you are
doing and why, in that particular case, you know better than the
compiler.

You do not. You pass the data of the string and the length:
sendto (sockFd_, response.data (), response.length (), ...
This works :). But when passing a const reference , end up getting a
segmentation fault. After some debugging it seems , it occurs during '
response.length ()' . Though the program works by pass by value , would
still like to discover the cause of the segmentation fault.

Let's say I have a std::string, and I want to replace all the ','

arrString content will be garbage with .net compilation, but when compiled with 6.0 it contains string from Vector (that's how I want it to work).

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
