C++ toupper symbol clash?

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Hello

I thought functions can have the same name, because params are different in C++

eg my
void tolower(std::string & str)

But I get a build error. I had expected not to conflict

I'm not on this list, so please cc me in any replies.
Thank you, Jonny

int toupper( int ch );
