Array and string type

[Mystic]

Hi,
I d like to know if it s possible to return a string array.
ex :
int ::first()
{
string myAr[2];

myAr = func();

}

string ::func()
{
string ar[2] = {"xXx", "Zone"};

return ar;
}

You can't assign to arrays.
}

string ::func()
{
string ar[2] = {"xXx", "Zone"};

return ar;
}

You sould use std::pair<std::string>. If you have more than two, use
std::vector<std::string>.

The standard declaration of pair needs two types, not just one.

#include <string>
#include <utility>

typedef std::pair< std::string, std::string > String_pair;
If you have more than two, use std::vector<std::string>.

Or use a struct to wrap your array, and return the struct by value.
