Hi everyone.I'm new here,and new to C++ coding.I have an assignment that can add, edit, delete, search, and display records.I've managed to add, and display using different ways like Struct,and Class by following some codes from my book.But my problem is Searching.I found some codes in my book under Array, on how to search but its only for when array is created and initialized already.But I need to use files.Can anyone help me?

Also when I run my codes, I get:

In function 'void Menu()'
no matching function for call to 'Inventory::Add()'
no matching gunction for call to 'Inventory::displayAll()'

You're getting those errors because on line 216 - 218 you are calling Add and displayAll without any arguments.

[sleet65]

Hi. Thank you so much for replying. Can you give example what is arugments? I was playing around with it.. and I tried doing this:

     switch(opt)
     {
        case 1: a.Inventory::Add(Inventory[], int, string, string, string, string, int, int, int, int, double);
             break;
        case 2: dA.displayAll();
             break;
        case 3:s.Search();
             break;
        default: cout << "Invalid Selection!" << endl;
                 break;
     }

But a whole lot more errors came out.. like expected primary-expresions before......

[LBEaston]

Okay, in the class Inventory you've declared the function

void Add(Inventory[], int, string, string, string, string, int, int, int, int, double);

the part in brackets is your arguments. These are what you want to pass into the function.
Looking at your code Add shouldn't take any arguments.

Hi LBEaston,

thank you so much for your reply. I was still confused so I went to ask my lecturer, and even he got confused. He said I was doing it too complicated than what I'm supposed tobe doing, so he asked me to try again.. T_T But thank you again for your help. :)

[hanst99]

It's understandable he was confused, it's hard to follow the thought process of someone who didn't quite "get it" yet.

[coder777]

You just need void Add(Inventory[]);. The rest of the parameter is part of Inventory itself

As you use Inventory[] on line 161 it's supposed to be in main() (after line 227) and then pass it to Menu(Inventory[] product)

The functions Add(), Search(), displayAll() are not supposed to be part of the class Inventory. Only functions that deals with the member variables are supposed to be part of the class Inventory.

[sleet65]

Ok. Thanks. Can you help me with another thing? I was going through the forum.. And I saw someone post some codes.. I tried to add a search function but it doesnt work. It only shows the first record. Any ideas why?

Here is the original post:
http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/beginner/48075/

void searchCD()
{
	string cdName = "";
	string artistName = "";
	string scdName = "";


	ifstream inFile;
	inFile.open("cds.txt", ios::in);


	if (inFile.is_open())
	{
		cout << "CD name: ";
		getline (cin, scdName);

		getline(inFile, cdName, '#');
		getline(inFile, artistName);

		while (scdName == cdName)
		{

			cout << cdName << ", " <<
				artistName << endl;

			getline(inFile, cdName, '#');
			getline(inFile, artistName);
		}

		//close the file
		inFile.close();
	}
	else
		cout << "File could not be opened." << endl;
	system("PAUSE");
}

[hanst99]

One topic per question.

[coder777]

Hm, you need to make clear to yourself what you're doing.

line 20 means: loop as long as scdName is equal to cdName. That means it stops at the first line where it's not so. The original poster was right. You need to loop as long as it is not end of file.

line 23: You want to cout only if scdName is equal to cdName.

[sleet65]

@hanst99

Oh.. Sorry.. My bad..

@coder777
I managed to do it after you explained it more clearly!! Thank you thank you so much!! :D :D :D
