vector of char (*)[] casts - c++

Question

I'm working with some legacy code and I need a StoreStrings class storing
some strings and able to return a MyString*.
I've tried with this:
typedef char MyString[64];
class StoreStrings{
public:
void store(MyString *aStr)
{
theVec.push_back(aStr);
}
const MyString* get(){return theVec.begin();}
private:
std::vector<MyString> theVec;
};
But I'm disappointed since it doesn't compile with this syntax.
StoreStrings myStore;
myStore.store("Hello");//cannot convert parameter 1 from 'char [6]' to 'char (*)[64]'
I've to instantiate one MyString before.
MyString myStr = "Hello";
myStore.store(&myStr);
How can I rewrite the StoreStrings class so to have myStore.store("Hello"); compiling?

Answer 1

Arrays cannot be used in STL containers as it requires the type to be copy constructible and assignable
You may try following, however std::string approach is best.
typedef char MyString[64];
struct X{
MyString s;
};
class StoreStrings{
public:
void store(MyString aStr)
{
X temp ;
for(int i=0;aStr[i];++i)
temp.s[i] =*(aStr+i);
theVec.push_back(temp);
}
// Here iterator is returned.
const std::vector<X>::iterator get(){return theVec.begin();}
private:
std::vector<X> theVec;
};
int main(){
StoreStrings myStore;
MyString m ="Hello";
myStore.store(m);
}

I would suggest something like that
Storestring.h
#pragma once
#include <vector>
class StoreStrings
{
public:
void store(const char* aStr)
{
pszStr = new char[64];
strcpy_s(pszStr,64,aStr);
theVec.push_back(pszStr);
};
~StoreStrings(void){
for(std::vector<char*>::iterator it = theVec.begin();it!=theVec.end();++it){
delete *it;
}
};
std::vector<char*>::iterator getBegin(){return theVec.begin();};
std::vector<char*>::iterator getEnd(){return theVec.end();};
private:
char* pszStr;
std::vector<char*> theVec;
};
main.cpp
#include "StoreStrings.h"
#include <iostream>
int main(void){
StoreStrings s;
s.store("a");
s.store("b");
s.store("c");
for(std::vector<char*>::iterator it = s.getBegin();it!=s.getEnd();++it){
std::cout << *it<<std::endl;
}
return 0;
};
