C# is the problem i used to program in C++ fluently! now for the last 6-8 months it has been C# every day because of work! After these months i relized i was loosing touch with the C++ purist inside of me! Now i want to take a series of DLL's i have written in C# and convert them to C++ to get back into the flow. And i apologize for cursing it is a bad bad hait i am attempting to break.

@Jimbo: thanks for the fix... i remeber now! I wasn't even thinking that i should specify the class the contructor belongs to.

EDIT:

still haev one unresolved question... why is it i cannot return a string array!?!?!?!?!?

For getting the count of elements in script, if it is allocated statically (by this I mean at compile time, not necessarily static as opposed to auto), it should. If you instead allocate dynamically, then sizeof(script) will be the size of a pointer on the system in question (likely four bytes), and not the size of the allocated block.

I agree with previous suggestions to use vectors. Syntactically, they may be different from C# arrays (never used C#, though I hear it's very Java-esque), but semantically, they are likely quite similar. Thus, any changes in the code to accomodate this will be fairly minor, and it will allow you to keep it conceptually closer to the C# code.
You can. The catch is, if you return an array from a function, odds are it gets deallocated before the calling function can use it (assuming it is declared in the called function). You can either a) allocate it off the heap with new, b) make it static, or c) return a container (like a vector).
