How to Assign Char variable value of one structure array to another?( C++)

Question

I have 2 structure
Struct ItemInfo{
Char itemName[50];
};
Struct BillInfo{
Char BitemName[50];
};
When I try to initialize
Billinfo.BitemName = iteminfo.itemName;
Error occur that "Expression must be modifiable Lvalue"
If I put asterisk at the beginning of both variables at the time of initialization it work but it store garbage value...
Can anyone help me please

Answer 1

This doesn't answer your question, but if you are using C++ you should use the string library and use string instead of char*. They provide more functionality and can use the assignment operator on eachother.

Answer 2

But to answer your question. Use strncpy:

//50 represents size
strncpy(array2, array1, 50);

Answer 3

Gevork!
I would love to use string but this is my project and our teacher asked not to use string anywhere in the project (strange but true) but I still used string array without structure and it is working fine...

Ah alright, glad it's working!
