Hi:
I'm a beginer of STL, and I'm wondering why none of below works:
############### ############### ############### ############### ############
..........
string str("string");
if ( str[0] == "s" ) cout << "First character is s" << endl;
OR:
string str("string");
string::iterato r it = str.begin();
if ((*it) == "s") cout << "First character is s" << endl;
OR:
string str("string");
if ( str[0] == (const char*)"s" ) cout << "First character is s" <<
endl;
############### ############### ############### ############### ###########
So, what should I do if I want to use operator== or operator[] to judge
whether one of the character in a string equals an special character? I
know c_str() may work, but why couldn't my method fails compilation?
Thanks!

str[0] is of type char. "s" is of type pointer to const char (or rather
decays into one).
OR:
string str("string");
string::iterato r it = str.begin();
if ((*it) == "s") cout << "First character is s" << endl;
Same as above.
OR:
string str("string");
if ( str[0] == (const char*)"s" ) cout << "First character is s" <<
endl;
And again.

Try:
if ( str[0] == 's' ) cout << "First character is s" << endl;
string::operato r[] returns a char not a string object - your code is
effectively trying to perform:
if ('s' == "s")
hence you will get an error about trying to compare a pointer to a
string/object.
You need to do:
if ( str[0] == 's' ) cout << "First character is s" << endl;
Notice that I have changed "s" to 's'.
As an aside, if you try str[n] where n is a non-existant index in str
you will get no error, I'd suggest using str.at(n) unless you are
certain that you will be accessing an existant index.

str[0] is a 'char', not a 'const char*'. A character literal is denoted
by single quotes, not double quotes. In every case above, if you replace
"s" with 's', (and remove the cast in the last case) it should work.

In all the above statements U are trying to compare a "char" with
"const char *".
All the above statements will give the following error:
"ComeauTest .c", line 6: error: operand types are incompatible ("char"
and
"const char *")
if ( str[0] == "s" ) cout << "First character is s" << endl;
^
"ComeauTest .c", line 8: error: operand types are incompatible ("char"
and
"const char *")
if ((*it) == "s") cout << "First character is s" << endl;
^
"ComeauTest .c", line 9: error: operand types are incompatible ("char"
and
"const char *")
if ( str[0] == (const char*)"s" ) cout << "First character is s"
<<endl;
^
3 errors detected in the compilation of "ComeauTest .c".
Try this:
if ( str[0] == 's' ) cout << "First character is s" << endl;
string::iterato r it = str.begin();
if ((*it) == 's') cout << "First character is s" << endl;
Thanks.

Hello!
I have this wrapper class Integer below that I use when testing operator
overloading.
A book that I read say that the expression
Integer i;
i+5 is translated to operator+(i,5) using the stand-alone helper function.
If Integer's constructor were not declared as explicit, the previous would
have one more possible translation which is
operator+(i, Integer(5))

Hi,
I recently wrote two benchmark programs that compared if two strings

and the other was a C++ program that used std::strings with
operator==().
In both programs, the first string consisted of one million
characters (all the letter 'a'). The second string was always one
character longer than the first string (with the letter 'a' for all the

Since operator overloads into static functions in C#, there really doesn't
need to be a connection between the types to which the operator is being
applied and the type in which the overload is defined, does there? I mean,
there's nothing to prevent the following, right?
public class A

public static B operator + (C c, D d) { ... }
