Why I cant "switch expression of type 'irr::core::strin

[Mr.Gluck]

irr::core::stringw rty;

switch(rty)

why it is mistaken?

[Romul]

Why not use something like:

Code: Select all

stringw		string("text");

if(string.equals_ignore_case("text"))
	printf("Yeap");
else if ... and so on

Any help?

[Saguman]

If I remember correctly switch needs integer value. For example:

Code: Select all

 irr::s32 foo = 0;

switch(foo)
{
    case 0:
        // do something
    break;
    default:
       // do something else
}

Yes, switch is only for numeric comparisons
