you did not code the class constructor or destructor.

Hmm..I don't think that makes a difference in this case since the object will be created irrespective of the initialization of the member variables and desctructors in such small programs are as such better left alone...

I am using this now:

void parseFile(ifstream& in)
{
    string tmp;
    Opra_record rec; // = new Opra_record;
    while(!in.eof()) {
        in >> rec;
    }
}

You forgot to incorporate the tips given to you.
And basically what you are doing is going in the wrong direction. You need not put the while loop in the parseint( ) function but in the overloaded friend function. Something like:

std::ifstream& operator>>(std::ifstream& in, Opra_record& r)
{
    string temp ;
    while( in >> temp )
    {
         // create accessor function for each private variable so that
         // you can retrieve them later from any part of the program
         r.get_string_data().push_back( temp )  ;
     }
}

void parseFile(ifstream& in)
{
    Opra_record rec = new Opra_record( );
    in >> *rec;
}

Dragon-

I will include my full code below, I had edited out a few things for brevity.

Why do you not construct the Opra_record here:

Opra_record* rec; // = new Opra_record;

Your friend function expects a reference to an instance of Opra record, it doesn't matter whether that Opra record has been statically or dynamically created.

Do something like:

Opra_record* rec = new Opra_record( ) ;
// and then use it as
while( in >> *rec )
{
   // your code here
}

OR

Opra_record* rec = new Opra_record( ) ;
Opra_record& ref_rec = *rec ;
while( in >> ref_rec )
{
   // your code here
}

Since I don't have a compiler right now, I havent tested the code, but it should pretty much work out to be well...

Hey there buddy, welcome to Daniweb..:D

And as far as your query is concerned, head over to the MySQL and PHP section for help..

Hey there Matt welcome to Daniweb...:D

Head over to the website development section of the forum for your site and see if you can find the solution to your problem...

Hey there Bassgeek welcome to Daniweb...

Head over to the spyware section of the forum and you will find many newbies in search of expert advice...:D

Hey there buddy welcome to Daniweb.

And yes its a good thing not to pretend things you know since it just ends up slowing the learning process.

Only 2 people who are married in this entire forum (I guess Miss Narue and Mr. Dragon).....heh

I thought I would get advice from the married pros but we seem to be lacking them here ;)

your mind but...

Is this thread going in the right direction...?

Welcome to Daniweb Mr. PHP'er...:D

However, how can you be absolutely certain that the stream is empty or that >> hasn't been called before getline(), particularly in a modular program where the exact sequence of calls may not be predictable?

...because I take care that a cin.ignore() always follows the getline( ) or cin used anywhere in the program. But yes, matter of personal style...

psychology -> sanitarium ;)

Understatements are opposite of Hyperboles..

The call to ignore() should come before the call to getline(), not after, if you are going to use it at all.

It should come after the first time you are accepting input from the user and expect the stream to be corrupted. What reason does it serve to place the ignore before getline when there is no attempt to read from the user and hence no chance of stream coruption.

Read this and this. In each case, ignore is used after accepting user input.

Of course no marriage is perfect, and we had our ups and downs just like many others. I think the trick to a long and reasonably happy marriage is to never go to bed mad at your partner. whatever disagreements you may have had during the day should be resolved before then.

Yes -- I get to hear that thing from a lot many elders out here..Looks like you really are ancient Mr. Dragon.

Although I don't know of many married pole dancers who program in their spare time.

So now we know that she is also a pole dancer....:D

Dating, would take Jwenting into a territory where the logic of computer science no longer exists. He doesn't like that kind of uncertainly.

:P
But what about you eh...;)

Women have burned me deep-- I have not yet forgone the strength of love and romance.

It really is a brave thing that after been through so much you still hold respect for this relationship...

ok well i think this is what you meant

No..I meant this..

Student GetStudent(Student &s3)
{
     for( count = 0; count < 2; ++count)
     {
          cout << "please enter your name: " << endl;
          cin.getline(s3.Name, 30);
          cin.ignore( 30, '\n' ) ;
          cout << "Please enter your GPA: ";
           //cin.getline(GPA);
          cin >> s3.GPA ;
          cout << "Please enter your Major: ";
          cin >> s3.Major ;
      }
}

cin.ignore() is basically used for cleaning the junk from the stream, which is basically left there when string input is accepted from the user. Since accepting GPA and Major involves accepting non string values, you don't need a ignore since there is nothing to ignore.

For exceptions you can look here.

too shy to talk to women in the wild, and the domesticated kind I have as colleagues are all married or engaged (sometimes to other colleagues).
And before I encountered such domesticated females it was simply too expensive to search them out, even had I dared to.

Come on Mr. Jwenting, you can surely impress them with your knowledge of Java..;) Maybe create a thread in Geek's Louge with subject "A cool Java Pro looking for a pro Java girl"...:D

>Are you married or not ?
Yes. ;)

So much we gathered from Mr. Iamthwee...;)

>If yes then what did marriage change in your life, are the new found
>responsibilities burdening you or making you a better person ?
What didn't it change? :rolleyes:

Change is certain, but total change ....(bah how am I to know..;))

Thats it..

Are you married or not ?

If not then what are your views on marriage, how do you people see marriage as ?

If yes then what did marriage change in your life, are the new found responsibilities burdening you or making you a better person ?

Regards,

PS: I am single and for me marriage is a sacred relationship...

You get a sarcastic moderator...

"Name" is undefined becauase the name which you want to access is a member of the structure student whose reference you passed to the function. So in order to change it you must access the "Name" variable via the struct instance or variable.

cout << "please enter your name: " << endl;
cin.getline(Name, 30);

// correct usage...atleast in your case
cin.ignore( 30, '\n' ) ;

cout << "Please enter your GPA: ";

// wrong way of accepting a floating point data, GPA is not a string 
// but a float so just use normal cin
cin.getline Student[index].GPA;

cout << "Please enter your Major: ";

//syntax error, see above for current use
cin.ignore Student[index].Major;

Also your logic seems to be incorrect and you are messing up between accepting data for one and multiple student variables. So you either:

1. Create an array of student variables and call get_student( ) method only once.
2.Create three seperate variables and call get_student( ) method three times.

But since either..
