| | 1. never ever use gets() -- it can destroy your program at runtime if you enter more characters than the input buffer can hold. Use fgets() instead to limit input. The downside to that function is you have to remove the trailing '\n' charcter (the <Enter> key) 2. I assume …  |
| | Use [noparse][code] ... [/code][/noparse] tags -- they will add line numbers for you so that you don't have to do it yourself. You said the function returns just a single character yet you are trying to return a character array. You can't have it both ways. What you should have … |
 | >>void print (first1); Just like arguments to any other function you have to tell it what kind of objectg first1 is -- such as [icode]void print (Gnode* first1);[/icode] |

| | The c++ compiler/IDE in the article is no longer recommended -- Dev-C++ too old and obsolete. Either of the following free compilers/IDEs are now recommended [URL="http://www.codeblocks.org/downloads"]Code::Blocks with MinGW compile[/URL] [URL="http://www.microsoft.com/express/Downloads/"]VC++ 2010 Expess[/URL] [URL="http://www.winprog.org/tutorial/"]Here is a tutorial[/URL] for introduction into MS-Windows GUI programming using pure win32 api functions. |
 | "a" is a pointer to the letter 'a', it is not c++ class std::string. You can only use the + operator on std::string [code] std::string a = "a"; std::string b = "b"; std::string c = "c"; std::string text = a+b+c; [/code] |

| | Replace cout with printf() Replace cin with scanf() Replace ofstream and ifstream with FILE* Replace [icode]fin >> [/icode] with fread() or possibly fgets(), depending on what is being read. Replace [icode]fout << [/icode] with fwrite(), or possibly fprintf(), depending on what is being written. |
| | >>i have c compiler so can i use it or i need c++ compiler and where can i get it Depends on the C compiler you are using. Most modern compilers will compile both C and C++, depending on the file exten. *.c is normally compiled as C code while … |
| | Re: C++ File getline() does not add the new line character to the end of the string, so if you display the string don't add endl or '\n' after it. |
 | A solution is actually even simpler than what David suggested above. But I think the OP's instructor wants him to use that c++ class he posted. He will have to use an array, or vector, of those class objects. IMO that's really a dumb way to solve the problem, but … |

| | don't know, unless its because you missed a \ in line 1 just before My Documents. VC++ 6.0 is a very very old compiler that may, or may not support that import statement. |
| | You can hide the console window if you want to. In MS-Windows you have to use win32 api functions to do it. [code] #include <windows.h> int main() { HWND hWnd = GetConsoleWindow(); ShowWindow(hWnd,SW_HIDE); } [/code] |

| | if you are using read() to read the data, then immediately call gcount() to get the number of bytes that were read. tellg() will only tell you where the file pointer is, not how many bytes were read. |

| | Re: strtok help >> I'd like to use char arrays for this, not c strings if possible. They are the same thing in C language. If you want to keep all the tokens (or words) in memory for all lines of the file then just generate a linked list of them. [code] struct … |

| | With a MS-Windows 32-bit (or 64-bit) compiler you will have to use the console functions in windows.h to get and set the current cursor position. Something like this: [code] #include <Windows.h> #include <stdio.h> void gotoxy(int x, int y) { // set the current cursor position COORD coord; coord.X = x; … |

| | Although that may have answered your question, I hope you realize that article is 8 years old and we now have Windows 7. I think w2K was the first Microsoft operating system whose hard drive didn't crash often. I don't think I've had a problem with NTFS since then (knock … |

The only acceptable way to declare it is [icode]int main()[/icode] or [icode]int main(int argc, char* argv[]);[/icode] what is [b]userinput[/b]? It has not been defined.

| | I think you would have more success by reading the entire line with fgets() then just write the line into the output file starting with the 3d byte of the input buffer [code] char inbuf[255]; while( fgets(inbuf, sizeof(inbuf), Numbered) != NULL) { fputs(&inbuf[2], Filtered); } [/code] |
| | why do those two functions have arguments? Did your instructor tell you to do that? Move lines 4 and 5 down into main() before calling either of those two functions, delete lines 11 and 12, then you can use the same variables for both functions on lines 32 and 34. … |
| | >>close(mfdprot); You probably meant fclose(mfdprot) Sounds like your operating system is buffering up the data. Try adding fflush() before fclose(). |
| | 32-bit compilers such as Dev-C++ do not support any of the functions in dos.h. Those functions won't work on MS-Windows operating system since Win98 (10-20 years ago). |

| | Look carefully at those while loops. See anything strange (wrong) with them? Take the first set of while loops. The first thing that will happen is that inFile6 will read the entire file while inFile3 and inFile4 remain constant (they won't read any more. After inFile6 reaches end-of-file the inFile6 … |

| | Actually, the loops in both code snippets are wrong. Why? Because eof() doesn't work like that. It only detects eof-of-file AFTER an attempt has been made to read the last item in the file, so the last item will get processed twice. A better way to code it is like … |
