From if else to switch statement

[numbplum]

Hi, I was wondering how you would put this if else statement to a switch statement.

void PlayerDB::AddPlayer(const Player& avatarPlayer)
{	
	char * playerName = new char[avatarPlayer.lenName()];
	Player	*	player = NULL;
	
	avatarPlayer.getName(playerName);

	if(DBtable.retrieve(playerName, player))
	{
		cout << "Attempting to add player \"" << playerName << "\" to the database -- Failed." << endl;
	}
	else
	{
		DBtable.insert(playerName, avatarPlayer);
		cout << "Attempting to add player \"" << playerName << "\" to the database -- Success!" << endl;
	}
	delete[] playerName;
}

You wouldn't. A switch is where you have multiple different results. If you have only 2 results, if/else makes much more sense.
