its actually not a C program.Your program is in C++.Anyways
Which compiler you are using?
post a stand alone code so that we cant check the error!!
Okay, thanks for that, that was a stupid mistake, lol, I have not really got any experience with C++. I'm compiling it from the terminal window with g++ instead now.
If you don't mind, I have a new question with a new error.
I have a few of these:
error: ‘wordPointer’was not declared in this scope
error: ‘malloc’ was not declared in this scope
so I passed wordPointer as a parameter (char* wordPointer)
but then found this brought me further errors for each variable I've defined within a structure or the class.
How do I allow these variables to be used publicly?
bool caseInsensitivelyEqual(char* s1, char* s2) {
int i=0;
bool same=true;
while (s1[i] && s2[i] && same) {
same=(tolower(s1[i])==tolower(s2[i]));
i++;
}
if (s1[i] || s2[i]) same=false;
return same;
}
<code> Here are the variables I am using in my print method.
struct wordRecord {
char* word;
struct wordRecord* next;
};</code>
class spellChecker {
protected:
struct wordRecord* wordList;
public:
spellChecker() {
wordList=NULL;
}
};
and the other 2 variables I am using for my print method are within
my case sensitive spellChecker class
struct wordRecord *root;
struct wordRecord *wordPointer;
root = malloc(sizeof( struct wordRecord));
root -> next = 0;
root -> word = dest;
wordPointer = root;
print method: I have passed them as parameters below:
void printDict(char* wordPointer, char* root, char* word, char* next) {
//Step through dictionary, printing each word
wordPointer -> root;
while(wordPointer != NULL) {
printf("%s\n", wordPointer -> word);
wordPointer = wordPointer -> next;
}
}
And the further errors I received:
error: request for member ‘root’ in ‘* wordPointer’,which is of non-class type ‘char’
error: request for member ‘word’ in ‘* wordPointer’, which is of non-class type ‘char’
error: request for member ‘next’ in ‘* wordPointer’, which is of non-class type ‘char’
