how to check if argv is of type string code example
Example: if argv == string
int main(int argc, char * argv[]) {
if (argv[1] == "yes"); // Wrong, compares two pointers
if (strcmp(argv[1], "yes") == 0); // This compares what the pointers point to
if (std::string(argv[1]) == "yes"); // Works fine
if (argv[1] == std::string("yes")); // Works fine
// Easy-mode
std::vector<std::string> args(argv, argv+argc);
for (size_t i = 1; i < args.size(); ++i) {
if (args[i] == "yes") {
// do something
}
}
}
