Help with sorting

[gemacjr1201]

void SortArray (char names[MAXNAMES][LISTLENGTH]) 
     {
     bool swap;
     int temp[LISTLENGTH];
 
     do
    {
    swap=false;
    for (int i=0; i<MAXNAMES-1; i++)
        {
        if (strcmp(names[i][0],names[i+1][0])>0)
            {
            for (int j=0; j<LISTLENGTH; j++)
                {
                temp[j]=names[i][j];
                names[i][j]=names[i+1][j];
                names[i+1][j]=temp[j];
                swap=true;
                }
            }
 
        }
         } while(swap);
    }

It says it can't compare a char to a const cher. ANY IDEAS?

[Ganon11]

When you type

strcmp(names[i][0], names[i+1][0]);

you are trying to compare the first character of the ith and i+1th name. strcmp, however, compares to character arrays; you should write

strcmp(names[i], names[i+1]);

instead.

Actually what it says is "can't convert char to const char *", please try to report your errors acurately.

See Ganons post for the solution.
