Invalid conversion compiler warnings about tinyexpr HOT 8 CLOSED

Looks like you're compiling tinyexpr as C++. You need to compile it as C code, then link it into your C++ project.

from tinyexpr.

Also, this line is not what you want:

double result = te_interp("calc", 0);

To pass a C++ string to a C function, you would do something like this:

double result = te_interp(calc.c_str(), 0);

Same error, but I think it could be from C & C++ incompatibilities.

from tinyexpr.

This is the full code then;

#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>
#include < iostream >
#include < string >
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <D:\ ... \Mywork\Cpp\Starter\tinyexpr.h>
#include <D:\ ... \Mywork\Cpp\Starter\tinyexpr.c>

int main()
{
std::cout << "Input arithmetic calculation: \n";
std::string calc;
std::cin >> calc;
double result = te_interp(calc.c_str(), 0);
std::cout << "Result = ";
std::cout << result << '\n';
return 0;
}

How are you compiling?

This line is your problem:

#include <D:\ ... \Mywork\Cpp\Starter\tinyexpr.c>

You need to remove that line! Then add tinyexpr.c to your project in your IDE. Your IDE should compile it separately as C code, and then link it in after.

As stated previously, your error comes from you compiling tinyexpr.c as C++, when it is in fact C code.

You should find a tutorial about how C and C++ compilers work. To be productive with programming, you need to not only know the programming language, but you need to understand how your tools work as well.

@codeplea Ok, I will try it tonight.
