Main code

CMyString type object param referring to void TestFunc (const CMyString ¶m) // argument strData

The problem point was annotated in the code.

operator char*() { return m_pszdata;} part
The error disappears when you const { return m_pszdata;}operator char*() const { return m_pszdata;} constant the method.
As far as I know, adding a const after a method name means declaring it a constant method "The constantized method does not allow write access to member variables and functions in a general way." as I understand it.
However, it is difficult to understand why this error is fundamentally resolved by "constant the variant patient function."
(It just reads the member function m_pszdata and returns m_pszdata.)
I need your help.
c++ casting const
As you know, the value contained in the variable of the data type with the const keyword cannot be modified.
If you look at the code you uploaded main.cpp, there is a part as follows.
void TestFunc(const CMyString& param)
{
std::cout << param << std::endl;
}
As you can see, we are receiving the const CMyString& type as a function factor.
From the compiler's point of view, the operator charge*() function within CMyString is considered to be a function that does not exist at all when a variable is declared with const CMyString type.
If you define the operator char* () const function, it is accepted as a member function because guarantees that the value of the member variable does not change.
It is difficult to correct the member function implementation, but to give you two simple solutions,
I hope it will help you understand what I explained, and I wrote a simple example code.
#include <iostream>
class A {
private:
char* char_pointer_;
public:
A(const char* arg) {
this->char_pointer_ = (char*)arg;
}
char* GetMyCharPointer() {
return this->char_pointer_;
}
char* GetMyCharPointerConst() const {
return this->char_pointer_;
}
};
int main() {
A standardA("1000");
const A constA("1000");
standardA.GetMyCharPointer(); // No problem
standardA.GetMyCharPointerConst(); // No problem
ConstA.GetMyCharPointer(); // Error: Member function GetMyCharPointer itself does not exist in constA
ConstA.GetMyCharPointerConst(); // No problem
}
