else

}
;return 0;
}Can someone tell me whats wrong?

Hi,
i started a basic text rpg and im getting the error:
't' is undeclared first use this function
Im using Bloodshed Dev-C++ as a compiler if that makes a difference.
Here is the code:
You declared the variable as the wrong type. Declare it as a string (make sure to #include <string>), and put quotes around the "t" in the if statement.

ok,
now i get:
could not convert `(&move)->std::basic_string<_CharT, _Traits, _Alloc>::operator= [with _CharT = char, _Traits = std::char_traits<char>, _Alloc = std::allocator<char>](((const char*)"t"))' to `bool'
New code:
Thanks for your answer btw.

You guys own!
Thanks for such a quick response.
Lastly, when i run the compiled .exe file it closes so quickly after i have pressed "t" that i cant see the message. How do i stop it closing?

Good 'ol command-line closes immediately after it finishes execution, which is a pain. You might want to throw in some basic input in there to force the window to hold still for a bit before it closes itself.
getch() comes to mind...

std::cin.get(); // right in front of the return// and also, why is there an empty statement in the front of the return?// ;return 0; // the first semi does nothing....And the reason the previous didn't work was because of the string... The '=' operator returns a string (on a string object, that is... on an int for example it returns an int), which cannot be converted to a bool in the if, because the if looks for a bool... It looks something like this:
// Since '=' is assigningstringA = "stringA test";stringA = stringB;bool IfTest = stringA; // Error, string cannot be converted to boolif (IfTest) ...While the '==' operator is a comparing, returning a bool:
stringA = "stringA test";bool IfTest = stringA == stringB;if (IfTest) ...This would work and the IfTest would be true if the strings are equal because you are comparing and not assigning.
The bad thing is, that ints and others can be converted to bools... An non-zero int would result in true, and any zero int would be false....
So this would work:
int myInt = 0;if (myInt) // myInt == 0 == false ... // Neverif (myInt = 1) // myInt = 1 == 1 == true ... // AlwaysThat's why you want to becareful because:
1) myInt would be changed if not supposed to
2) the if would always work
Just some tips :).
Good luck!
well, i tend to use getch() but thats a C style function.
Even so, it still works-
first include conio.h
then before you exit the main function, call getch() and it will wait for some kind of key input.
Wow, GDNet is on fire today [grin]

cin.get(); should also work, though latley it hasn't been working for me..Sysytem ("pause") works too, but it writes a "Press any key to continue." That also requires the STD lib if you decide to use it.

ok new problem,
Error:
`}' at end of input
Thanks new comments :)
