The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

MFC, C++: CString character access logical comparison causes compile time error

Asked by sternocera in Windows MFC Programming, Windows Programming, C++ Programming Language

Tags: , ,

Hello,

I have encountered an annoying problem in MFC. The attached code snippet causes these compile time errors:

error C2446: '==' : no conversion from 'const char *' to 'int'

error C2040: '==' : 'int' differs in levels of indirection from 'const char [2]'

I can't for the life of me figure out why this should be.....I've found very similar code on MSDN that does the same thing (comparing a CString's GetAt function with a char literal.)

Your help would be appreciated, as always!

Regards,

void MyApp::disinject(CString& arg)
{
	// this utility function allows users to include literal " ' "s and so on
	// it guards against SQL injection
	
	int j = arg.GetLength();
	for(int i =  0;i != j; ++i) // this bit won't build
	{
		arg.GetAt(i);
		if(arg.GetAt(i) == "'")
		{
			arg.Insert(i,"'"); // make ' into ''
			++j;
		}
 
	}
}
