fread question
Author
When i read in a text file using fread how do i get the char* i obtain to be nullterminated. I mean how do i have it stop copying after the text in the text file is done.

#include <fstream.h>void main(){ const int MAX = 80; char buffer[MAX+1]; ifstream aFileReader("sample.txt"); while (aFileReader) { aFileReader.getline(buffer, MAX, '\n'); // When it reaches a line, stop, display cout << buffer << endl;; // Manually endl and continue }}; [edited by - Malpass on May 4, 2003 6:38:42 AM]

fgets didnt quite do it for me since it only reads in one line. It has to be able to read in a text of many lines.
malpass: same need many lines.
You know a similar function for that.
fscanf didnt work at all. Dont know why.
Is there a function for this or must a use a string tokenizer and add a special ending sign to my text.

Oh, come on. If you are going to show them the "C++" way, at least show it to them properly:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
int main()
{
std::ifstream inFile("sample.txt");
std::string line;
while (inFile)
{
std::getline(inFile, line, '\n');
std::cout << line << std::endl;
}
...
inFile.close();
return 0;
}

const char * TheCharStar = AnStdString.c_str();
if you want one that you can modify, its a bit trickier:
char * TheCharStar = new char[AnStdString.length() + 1];
strcpy(TheCharStar, AnStdString.c_str(), AnStdString.length());
