Is there anyway to create null terminated string in Go? What I'm currently trying is a:="golang\0" but it is showing compilation error: non-octal character in escape sequence: " Spec: String literals: The text between the quotes forms the value of the literal, with backslash escapes interpreted as they are in rune literals (except that \' is illegal and \" is legal), with the same restrictions. The three-digit octal ( \nnn ) and two-digit hexadecimal ( \xnn ) escapes represent individual bytes of the resulting string; all other escapes represent the (possibly multi-byte) UTF-8 encoding of

I defined an array for strings. It works fine if I define it in such a way the first element is not an empty string. When its an empty string, the next scanf() for the other string stops reading the input string and program stops execution. Now I don't understand how can defining the array of strings affect reading of input by scanf() . char *str_arr[] = {"","abc","","","b","c","","",""}; // if first element is "abc" instead of "" then works fine int size = sizeof(str_arr)/sizeof(str_arr[0]); int i; printf("give string to be found %d\n",size); char *str; scanf("%s",str); printf("OK\n");

I read a string from a JSON result as follows: NSString *strResult = [[NSString alloc] initWithBytes:[data bytes] length:[data length] encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]; I then try to determine if the string is equal to the value "N" if ([strResult isEqualToString:@"N"]) { [lblImageOK setHidden:YES]; } else { [lblImageOk setHidden:NO]; } The if statement allways returns the else part, even though the result is "N". They both have the same value but the statement returns false always. I found a way to clean the string and then check if they are equal. NSString *strResult = [[NSString alloc]

This question already has answers here : Closed 7 years ago . Possible Duplicate: Modifying C string constants? Pointer to const char vs char array vs std::string I know I'm probably beating the dead horse with this question, but I'm a little confused and I haven't managed to find an exact answer on SO or google (that I'm confident is right - there's just too much information on C-strings to sift through). Also, I've tagged it C++ because that's what I'm interested in, even though we're talking about C-style strings specifically. In this situation: char const a* = "hello"; char const b[] =

I've got another newbie question. I've written a piece of code that converts a NSString to NSMutableData in order to simulate a webService result. It turns out however that cString is deprecated. Can you help me replace it? Here's my code. NSString *testXMLDataString = @"<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>" etc.... "</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>"; //Replace webData Received from the web service with the test Data NSMutableData *testXMLData = [NSMutableData dataWithBytes:[testXMLDataString cString] length:[testXMLDataString length]]; [webData setData:testXMLData]; Get the raw bytes from the

I've written a DLL that creates an ATL CString object. I compile it with Visual Studio 2015 using the "Visual Studio 2015 - Windows XP (v140_xp)" platform toolset. The DLL is loaded using LoadLibrary/GetProcAddress. It crashes under Windows XP in CAtlStringMrg::GetInstance when allocating the string object. The same application works well on Windows Vista and later. Here is the disassembly: static IAtlStringMgr* GetInstance() { #pragma warning(push) #pragma warning(disable: 4640) static CWin32Heap strHeap( ::GetProcessHeap() ); 1003B100 mov eax,dword ptr fs:[0000002Ch] 1003B106 mov ecx,dword
