No matching function call, std::array problem

celion (2)
I'm writing a chess program that i can hopefully later put graphics in with sfml. Right now, i'm stuck because I can't seem to call a simple drawboard function.
Right now i'm not worried about it being weird(setBoard calling drawBoard etc) but just trying to get it compile and print the damned thing.

int main()
{

	Board * b = new Board();
	b->setBoard();
	
}

drawBoard(board);
^

thats the error im getting, and im not sure why. Thank you!

Your std::array is defined with chars
std::array<std::array<char, 8>, 8> board

Your trying to pass in an std::array define with ints
std::array<std::array<int, 8>, 8>

A char might be implicitly convertible to an int, but a wrapper around them is not.
