Help needed compiling C code

I have this code:

#include <stdio.h>

void strcpy (char x[], char y[])
{
    int i;

    i = 0;
    while ((x[i] = y[i] != '\0')
    i +=1;
}

int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
char p;
p = strcpy("aasdf","sdgd");
printf("%d\n",p);
fgetc(stdin);
return 0;
}

But when I compile it I get the following errors:

Compiler: Default compiler
Executing g++.exe...
g++.exe "E:\Datalogi\C kode\Untitled2.cpp" -o "E:\Datalogi\C
kode\Untitled2.exe" -g3 -I"C:\Programmer\Dev-Cpp\include\c++\3.3.1" -I"C

Can someone help me correcting it?
