return string array

[nuttynibbles]

hi people,

im trying to return an array. here is my function.

string *split(){
string *ptr;
string data[3];
ptr = data;
data[0] = "apple";
data[1] = "orange";
data[2] = "durian";

return ptr;
}

i tried calling in main but im getting run time errors
int main(){

string *ptr = split();
cout << ptr[0];
cout << ptr[2];
cout << ptr[3];

return 0;
}

the run time error im getting is segmentation fault.

Please help. tks

hi,

sorry that was a typing error.

i even tried assigning to data[0] only and in main(), cout << data[0]. it still gives an error
