Allocate Memory

[Paul McKenzie]

One question:

Why aren't you using, at the very least, the basic <string.h> functions in your class or even functions such as memcpy() when copying one buffer to another?

For example:

zString::zString(const char * const rhs)
{
    for(m_Length=0; *(rhs+m_Length)!='\0'; m_Length++) {} //Find first Null
    Alloc(m_Length);
    for (int i=0; i<m_Length; i++)
        (*this)[i] = *(rhs+i);
}

There is no need to code loops to find the length of a null-terminated string, or loops to copy data.

zString::zString(const char * const rhs)
{
    m_Length = strlen(rhs);
    Alloc(m_Length);
    memcpy(m_Char, rhs, m_Length);
}
