Hello, I have been stuck on this for awhile, and can not seem to get it to work exactly correct.
I am trying to read in a file ("in_text.txt") and print out it's contents to the screen for now (eventually i will manipulate the data with a block_cipher class). Here is what I have so far...
in_text.txt
your cat
#include <iostream>
#include "block_cypher.h"
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
ifstream ins;
long begin,end,length;
char letter;
{
ins.open("in_text.txt", ios::in);
if (ins.fail())
{
cerr << "Failed to open in_text.txt.\n";
exit(1);
}
}
begin = ins.tellg();
ins.seekg(0, ios::end);
end = ins.tellg();
length = ((end - begin)-1);
ins >> letter;
while (!ins.eof())
{
cout << letter;
ins >> letter;
}
cout << endl;
cout << "Length = " << length << endl;
return (0);
}Thanks
