I have a class which uses, say, test.GetStr() to get the character Test1''s strength. How can I use a variable, like "attacker" instead of "test" to do that? --www.edf-project.org--

Well, you just create a variable named attacker which is of the right type...

wat he said

like type this:

test* attacker= new test;

done

I tried that, but I get an error that the variable does not have a member function GetStr() defined, or something like that.

Try using this:

attacker->GetStr();

if you dynamicly create an instance of a class, you have to use the -> to call your member functions...

I used that, it seems to help, but does not appear to work if "attacker" is a string. It says something to the effect of cannot use -> with non-pointer type string.

u should be clear next time

-anynomous poster-

err.. if you have created a class, why aren''t you using it ? Why use a string ?

About what?

I get an error: " base operand of '->' has non-pointer type 'string' "

Is there another variable type I should use?

_____EDIT_____
I need information from another class in that function. Is there a better way to do this?
