Hi everybody I've tried many ways of having something happen IF the text is equal to this, or that... however I can't seem to get it to work Example codes I tried:

Code: Select all

//Try # 1:
if (strcmp(PWD.text, "c7756453f8")) {
    view.x+=640;
} //This test ended in it making the view go regardless of the password Oo

//Try # 2:
if (PWD.text == "c7756453f8") {
    view.x+=640;
}


Can anybody help with this? XD Im so confused as to why its not working

Code for checking if equal is this:

Code: Select all

if (strcmp(myLine, "hello") == 0)
{
    //blah…
}

0 is for that strcmp() compares the strings values (every char has own value) and returns the dfference between the lines' values. (I think.)

Thank you so much!

You're welcome!

The documentation is where to look at for things like this... it explains 99% of all functions!

True but I'd get my answeres from here faster, because my attention span.

Will this check if string is empty?

Code: Select all

if(strcpy(string, 0,)==1)
{
//stuff
}

or this

Code: Select all

if(string==0)
{
//randomness
}

I'm assuming string variables start out as 0 unless otherwise specified.

Well, you can do this if you want to check if it is an empty string.

Code: Select all

if(strcmp(text, "")==0)
{
    //
}

If you are checking if the string is null, you can do this, but that only applies if it is NULL (so you'd have to set it to NULL yourself).

Code: Select all

if(text==NULL)
{
    //
}
