D - [help] property error
- Lewis (29/29) Jan 07 2004 ok, i have the following enumeration:
ok, i have the following enumeration:
enum CompareMethod {
BinaryCompare = 0,
TextCompare = 1
}
and the following function for comparing two char[] strings, (AString is an
alias for char[]) and it gives me a
-no property 'CompareText' for type 'int'
compile eror...
public int StrComp(AString Value1,AString Value2,CompareMethod Compare) {
int len1 = Value1.length;
int len2 = Value2.length;
int result = 0;
try {
if (len1 == len2) {
if (Compare == CompareMethod.CompareText)
{ result = memcmp((char*)Value1,(char*)Value2,len1); }
else
{result = memicmp((char*)Value1,(char*)Value2,len1);}
return result; }
else
{ return result; }
}
catch
{ return result; }
}
would somebody be able to posibly tell me what im doing wrong, im thinking im
using the enum incorectly, but i dont know how...
thanks

Can you bit a bit clearer about what you're trying to achieve and, since you said you made a typo, post again, after having converted tabs to spaces, so we can see your code in its formatted state? :) "Lewis" <dethbomb hotmail.com> wrote in message news:bthpup$2nh6$1 digitaldaemon.com...ok, i have the following enumeration: enum CompareMethod { BinaryCompare = 0, TextCompare = 1 } and the following function for comparing two char[] strings, (AString isanalias for char[]) and it gives me a -no property 'CompareText' for type 'int' compile eror... public int StrComp(AString Value1,AString Value2,CompareMethod Compare) { int len1 = Value1.length; int len2 = Value2.length; int result = 0; try { if (len1 == len2) { if (Compare == CompareMethod.CompareText) { result = memcmp((char*)Value1,(char*)Value2,len1); } else {result = memicmp((char*)Value1,(char*)Value2,len1);} return result; } else { return result; } } catch { return result; } } would somebody be able to posibly tell me what im doing wrong, im thinkingimusing the enum incorectly, but i dont know how... thanks
