In my function, my main calls a function to save the data. In script-based
languages like
matlab, I can use multiple in strcat. However, in C++ it's not working since
first argument
of strcat must be the destination.

How can I get arround?





main{

.....
fname = "_0100_0211"; // from somewhere
save_messages(......, char fname);
.....


return (0);
}


function save_messages(......, char fname[100])
{
fname = strcat("MSG_INP_", fname, ".DAT");
fp = fopen(fname, "w");
blah blah
fclose(fp);

fname = strcat("MOD_OUT_", fname, ".DAT");
fp = fopen(fname, "w");
blah blah
fclose(fp);
.....
....

}

Use std::string rather that C style "strings".


You can concatenate strings with the + operator, or by using a stringstream.
