ah, ok. <string, int> works like a charm! :)
I'm using new, because I need the table somewhere else. The try/catch
is in my main, while the function resides in the SearchText class. The
delete statements are there, I just didn't post them ;)
Ofcourse I'm just a c++ newbie (this is my first program actually), so
what would you do different?
An alternative to Jim's suggestion:
// pass by non-const reference.
void SearchText::countWords( std::map<std::string, int> &map ){
map["aap"] = 1;
map["noot"] = 2;
std::cout << map["aap"] << std::endl;
std::cout << map["noot"] << std::endl;
return;
}
// int main(){
try {
std::map<std::string, int> MyMap;
SearchText text("test.txt");
text.countWords( MyMap );
std::cout << MyMap["aap"] << std::endl;
std::cout << MyMap["noot"] << std::endl;
}
catch( int ex) {
cout << "Could not open file." << endl;
}
// return 0;
// } // main()
Sorry, I didn't test that. Post back if you have trouble ( I may have missed
something. <G>).
