    um... making a scripting language

    I wan't to make my own scripting language, and after much hell in VB i am attempting to learn C++. Are there things similair to the mid$ and other string functions in C++?? if so what are they and if anyone can could you please supply an example program using them. I know this seems like a dumb project for a newbie but i really want to do this. BTW does anyone know if it would be possible to take the code in the scripting language, convert it to C and compile it?? if so is it legal to include compilers in my code or do i have to get copyright permissions??

    As far as i know as long as you write the compiler yourself you will have no legal issues its only if u use an existing comiler.

    As for the string functions if you have msdn search for string manipulation and then find the srtring function summary page this has most of the useful string functions laided out. If you don't have msdn head over to msdn.microsoft.com.

    Good Luck

    With great difficulty. Don't even THINK about it at this stage.
