qsort() function help

[coderoobie]

:'(
Hi geeks!, since I started programming I have never used qsort() for sorting. I also tried to consult books but, 'little or no success!'.

Can anyone who know better help me to understand qsort() function.
Please do it with an example!

Happy forever even faced with c++!

How about loading all the strings to a vector and sorting that vector?
example:

#include <iostream>
#include <vector>
#include <algorithm>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{

    vector<string> allStrings;
    allStrings.push_back("bbb");
    allStrings.push_back("abb");
    allStrings.push_back("aaa");
    allStrings.push_back("aba");
    allStrings.push_back("aac");

    sort(allStrings.begin(), allStrings.end());

    for (int i = 0; i < allStrings.size(); i++)
        cout << allStrings[i] << "\n";

    cin.get();
    return 0;
}

niek_e already gave you the right hint. I would do it the same way.
