Represent data in a Tree

Hi,

I have the following data in a two dimension array

RaceX/cRaceCar.cpp
RaceX/dsutil.cpp
RaceX/
RaceX/res/bmp_fullroadq11.bmp
RaceX/res/gold_tophy.bmp

It is a path of the files / directories.

I want to represent it in a tree structure.

RaceX
|_______cRaceCar.cpp
|_______dsutil.cpp
|_______res
...............|_______bmp_fullroadq11.bmp
...............|_______gold_tophy.bmp

Please help me with an algorithm...

Currently I am using the following..

1) Sorting the List
2) Printing the list one by one after checking the no of '/'

The Vector Sort doesnt behave as expected...

Any Help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Pradeep

Have you considered using a treeview?

Hi,

I Solved it..
I used Vectors and then
Wrote my own algorithm to sort..
then I traversed through the vector and then wrote it in the form of a tree..
:)

Thank you,
Pradeep

std::sort from <algorithm> would have sorted it for you.

Hi,

I tried using sort. But it dint help.. I see there is some problem in that, hence I wrote a small subroutine for bubble sort..

Thanks,

You likely have the wrong sorting predicate.
What do you store the strings in?

Hi,

I used the Class object in the Sort method and the operator > was overloaded to comparing strings..

It was not the problem of the std..
even when i used to sort it using pipe.. and sort.. it behaved the same...

That's weird.
Can't test right now, but I'm sure this should work:

Code:

---

#include <string>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
using std::string;
using std::vector;
using std::sort;

typedef vector<string> strvec;

int main()
{
  strvec strs;
  strs.push_back("kjla");
  strs.push_back("afa w");
  strs.push_back("sgcsf");
  strs.push_back("s3ss");
  strs.push_back("3ggxt");
  sort(strs.begin(), strs.end());
}
