error C2039:string_view

[Hawlong]

hello all,

how can fixed this error

error C2039: 'string_view' : is not a member of 'std'

i use VS 2010

All solutions set to "/std:c++17" in language standard

where is language standard in VS2010

[Peter87]

Maybe this is a stupid question but are you sure VS2010 supports C++17?

I'm asking because VS2010 sounds like it's from the year 2010,
and C++17 is the 2017 version of the C++ standard.

[Hawlong]

omg , thanks for reply
Is there an alternative to std::string_view ?

[Peter87]

Maybe you could try boost::string_view.

erorr , C2653: 'boost' : is not a class or namespace

[George P]

Boost is a 3rd party library. You download the Boost libraries, compile them and set your project's directory lookup to include the Boost libraries.

https://www.boost.org/

I sure haven't a clue how to get Boost working with VS 2010, that is an antique.

[Peter87]

Note that std::string_view is mostly used as an "optimization" to avoid copying characters unnecessarily. If string handling is not a performance critical part of your program you can probably just use std::string instead without problem.

[seeplus]

Why not just upgrade to the latest VS2022 compiler? The community version is free.

thanks so much George P , i'll dawnload it.

thanks for replay seeplus .
It is not my computer and its system is 32 bit and this computer is very weak

[George P]

There are newer compilers/IDEs available that can do Win32 API and C++ console mode coding with a newer C++ standard, and can work on a 32-bit machine. Code::Blocks is one.

https://www.codeblocks.org/

Visual Studio 2019 Community (Free) Edition is still available and supported. Check the system requirements:

Code::Blocks uses a different compiler which has a different syntax for inline assembly.

[Hawlong]

omg , i think Code::Blocks is bad , i'll back to VS

Is there in c plus plus similar to string_view' ?

[Ganado]

string_views are essentially lightweight but safer char pointers. Probably you can replace it by using a const std::string& reference.

[seeplus]

Or write your own version of string_view. It's not that difficult. It's based around 2 pointers - to start and one-past end - and the size. Only read-only operations are allowed.

[Hawlong]

thanks so much Ganado
i change

LPVOID AOBScan(LPVOID lpStartAddress, const std::pair<std::vector<uint8_t>, std::string_view>& pair, size_t dwScanSize = 0x1000 )
	{
		//boost::string_view
		const std::vector<uint8_t>& bytes = pair.first;
		std::string_view mask = pair.second;
		auto dwAddressToRead = reinterpret_cast<DWORD>(lpStartAddress);
		LPVOID lpPossibleHit = 0x00;

		size_t i{};
		while (i < dwScanSize) {

			if (Read<uint8_t>(reinterpret_cast<LPVOID>((DWORD)lpStartAddress + i)) == bytes[0]) {

				// FOUND A POSSIBLE HIT.

			++i;

to
