Question

So I have code like

 int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{ 
    string outputUrl ;
    string outputContainer ;
    string outputUserName ;

    for(int i = 0 i>=argc; i+2){
        switch(argv[i]){ //C2450
            case "-server" : {outputUrl += (argv[i+1]);} break; //C2051
            case "-container" : {outputContainer = (argv[i+1]);} break; //C2051
            case "-nickname" : {outputUserName += (argv[i+1]);} break; //C2051
    }
}

Why does it give me compiler error C2450 and on next line C2051?
How to fix such thing?

Answer 1

The switch statement can’t use strings. You’ll need to replace it with a string of if–else if statements instead.
