c++ - Why is this if statement not running when the values are equal to each other? -

-

i trying implement code takes morse code 3 spaces between each letter , gets first morse translation , compares array containing morse code translations. goes buffer == morsem[j], buffer should equal .- , morsem[j] should equal .-; if j = 0, both do, not executing if's block. idea why?

#include <iostream>  using namespace std;  int main(){     char morsem[26][5] = {{".-"},{"-..."},{"-.-."},{"-.."},{"."},{"..-."},{"--."},{"...."},{".."},{".---"},{"-.-"},{".-.."},{"--"},{"-."},{"---"},{".--."},{"--.-"},{".-."},{"..."},{"-"},{"..-"},{"...-"},{".--"},{"-..-"},{"-.--"},{"--.."}};     char alpha[27] = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz";     char morse[] = ".-   ....";     int length;     int first_counter = 0;     while(morse[first_counter] != '\0'){         first_counter++;     }     char *new_morse = new char [first_counter];     int counter = 0;      char *buffer = new char [5];     for(int x = 0; x < first_counter; x++){         if(morse[x] != ' '){             buffer[counter] = morse[x];             counter++;         }         if(morse[x] == ' '&& morse[x+1] == ' ' && morse[x+2] == ' '){             for(int j=0;j<27;j++){                 if(buffer == morsem[j]){                     cout << alpha[j] << endl;                     break;                 }             }             for(int = 0; < first_counter; i++){                 new_morse[i] = morse[i+x+3];             }         }     }     delete[] buffer;      cout << morse << endl;     cout << new_morse << endl; }

if(buffer == morsem[j]){ comparing pointer values , not strings. need compare "what pointers pointing at".

since in c++, using std::string may easier char char buffers...

java - Copying object fields -

-
what best way of copying classes when need have 2 independent variables? have simple class: public class myclass { boolean = false; string b= "not empty"; } do need make method : assign(myclass data ) { a= data.a; b= data.b; } is there automatic method copy (duplicate) objects in java? do need make method : pretty close. instead of making method, should make constructor. such constructors called copy constructor , , create them this: myclass(myclass data) { = data.a; b = data.b; } and create copy of instance, use constructor this: myclass obj1 = new myclass(); myclass obj2 = new myclass(obj1); copy constructor can tedious : using copy constructor create deep-copy can tedious, when class has mutable fields. in case, assignment create copy of reference, , not object itself. have create copy of fields (if want deep copy). can go recursive. a better way create deep copy serialize , deserialize object. why not use clone()? ...

c++ - Clear the memory after returning a vector in a function -

-
i have function processes , stores lot of data in , returns results vector of class. amount of data stored in function tremendous , want clear storage memory of function after finished job. necessary (does function automatically clear memory) or should clear memory function? update: vector<customers> process(char* const *filename, vector<int> id) { vector<customers> list_of_customers; (perform actions) return list_of_customers; } variables defined locally within function automatically released @ end of function scope. destructors objects called, should free memory allocated objects (if objects coded correctly). example of such object std::vector . anything you've allocated new must have corresponding delete release storage. try avoid doing own allocation , use raii instead, i.e. containers or smart pointers.
