wstring array problem

[Saurabh Aggrawal]

Hi,

On line nos. 24, 25, 26

24: wstring cfMethods[] = {{L"setLabel"},{L""}};
25: wstring cfProperties[]= {{L"isVisible"},{L""}};
26: wstring cfEvents[] =
{{L"onLoad"},{L"onQueryTerminate"},{L"onTerminate" },{L""}};

i am getting the following errors:

cframe.cpp(24) : error C2552: 'cfMethods' : non-aggregates cannot be

'std::basic_string<_E,_Tr,_A>' : Types with private or

This compiler error is due to the reason:

// initialize a CLR immutable value type that has a constructor
System::DateTime dt = {2001, 4, 12, 22, 16, 49, 844}; // C2552
Question 1. How should i initialize an array of wstring?

Question 2. And what is wrong with the statement below.
wstring cfMethods[] = {{L"setLabel"},{L""}};
Respects,

24: wstring cfMethods[] = {{L"setLabel"},{L""}};
25: wstring cfProperties[]= {{L"isVisible"},{L""}};
26: wstring cfEvents[] =
{{L"onLoad"},{L"onQueryTerminate"},{L"onTerminate" },{L""}};

The error comes from the extra {} around the parameter to
the constructor of individual wstring items -- it is not allowed.

Write the following instead:
wstring cfMethods[] = {L"setLabel",L""};

wstring cfProperties[]= {L"isVisible",L""};

wstring cfEvents[] = {L"onLoad",L"onQueryTerminate",L"onTerminate",L""} ;

hth,
