Hi,

I have two functions below :

int test1(string str1, string str2)
{
	str1.MakeUpper();
	str2.MakeUpper();
	return(str1.Find(str2));
	
}


int test2(string str1, string str2)
{
	str1.MakeUpper();
	return(str1.Find(str2.MakeUpper()));
	
}



which I test with

TEST1(INTEGER,PATH|MOLARUNITS|STRING)= .... returns -1
TEST2(INTEGER,PATH|MOLARUNITS|STRING)= .... returns 7

I'm puzzled as to why..

Cheers,

Pete

Hi Pete,

Note that the MakeUpper() method does not return any value. It just sets the string to upper case. So in the test2 function, str2.MakeUpper() does not return a string as is needed for the Find() function to work.

The compiler should have caught this one - we will look into why it did not - thanks for reporting this.

Hi Easwar,

Thanks. That makes sense I guess.

Cheers,

Pete
