C++ :: Extracting String From Text File
Jun 5, 2014
I have a program here that writes employee information into a text file called employee.txt. I don't have a problem writing into the text file.
I'm supposed to enter the employees ID and search for it. Then pull up all they're info.
This is what I have.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main(){
ifstream inFile;
ofstream outFile;
[Code] ....
This is the text file
Viktor,Luc,552,123 Home,5000

I have a text file called (Test.txt) with the following text:
This is line one
This is line two
This is line three
How do I go about writing a program that will print a line of text (e.g. "This in line two" on the console screen?
All I can seem to do is display the entire text file.

Extracting integers from a string is trivial, but I am unable to find a function or code that will extract decimal numbers from a string.
I have a string that looks something like this:
" Asdf 1 1.3825 4.0000 12.0000 1.9133 0.1853 0.9000 1.1359 4.0000 "
Any tips on extracting the numbers (in decimal form) and storing them in a vector?

I have written a C++ program I have multiple of CSV file used as input, which I open one at a time and close it after extracting data to a output file which is the only file.
I run getline(inFile,line);
outFile << line << endl;
I run this code, and only part of it is goes to the output file I got, also have spacing randomly to specific file and inconsistent
But when I slower the code, like system("Pause") in the loop, I can get extract what I want perfectly....
Is my program running to fast, why getline would be skipping part of what things I want?

Create a simple data file like the example shown below containing the 4 dates below plus 10 or more additional dates. The file should include 1 date per line and each date should have the form MonthNumber-DayOfTheMonth-Last2DigitsOfTheYear with no extra spaces. All dates should be in this century. No error checking for invalid dates is necessary.
My Output displays like
February -19,1991
How do I get my program to ignore the dash between the dates?
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cmath>
using namespace std;
int main(){
const int M = 13;

So this may be against the rules, not sure, grey area probably? However I just bought the PC game Oil Rush, and was having a look at how the assets are packed. As with most games the textures, scripts, sounds and audio are all free to access.
However the game data such as maps, models and other, are packed into UNG files, i.e a custom encrypted file format, which probably is also compressed. So I googled for an unpacker/extracter and found one which also comes with the C source. You can download here. [URL] ....
So I am trying to figure out how these authors work out this file format, from the source we have,
Code:
static const u8 unigine_mask[] = "xffx7fx3fx1fx0fx07x03x01";
u32 unigine_key = 0xa13cdbde;
Looks like a password of sorts. You then have to work out the complete understanding of the file formats, headers, blocks etc.. How is this done...

I'm trying to make a program that will read in names and grades from a text file and print them in the console. However whenever I try to use the OpenFile.get function I get an error saying that there is "no instance of overloaded function"
getting this error resolved before I can.
my code so far (I know it's missing a lot, but that's not what I'm worried about right now.)
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

I need to read from a text file and search for a string that appears in the file and then count how many times it appears. My count just prints zero though. Do you see what I did wrong in my code for this to happen?
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

I'm working on a program that can load all words from a dictionary "English2.txt" (it's attached to the post), then put every word into a 2-dimensional matrix (every line is reserved for one word) and display them. After loading every word into a matrix, when I try to display first 8 words with printf, I can't do it without '' at the end of a line. Otherwise only the 8th word is displayed... What's more, when I try to read the length of the first word with strlen, it says, that it has 4 characters (in fact there are only 3 and it's the word "AAA"). What could be the reason for that?
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdint.h>
int main()
{
FILE *fp;
char buffer[32];
[Code]...

I'm making a program in which it will read an input from a text file and then count the numbers of spaces , characters , words . Here is what i think it would work : First i will transfer the contents from the input.txt into a string , after that i will create 3 strings which contain each of these : spaces , characters , words . Then comparing each of the contents of the intput.txt_string to the other 3 strings .
#include<iostream>
#include<fstream>
#include<string.h>
using namespace std;
[code]....
and of course it doesnt seem to work...

I'm trying to read all content from a text file into a string. This is the code I'm using for it (I know there are other, maybe better ways to do it but I'd like to stick to this for now):
char* buffer;
std::string data;
FILE* fp = fopen("textfile.txt", "rb");
if (!fp) {
printf("Can't open file");
[Code] ....
So my problem is that I get an exception when I try to free the memory -> 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x51366199
I even get the exception when I try to free it immediately after calloc() but why this is.
And if I use buffer = (char*)malloc(lSize); I don't get any exceptions.
So, why this fails and what I'm doing wrong.

I have two puzzling issues I am dealing with.
Issue 1: I am using a stringstream object in a block of my program that needs to be visited repeatedly depending on a user's selection from a menu. I want the contents of this stringstream object to be cleared any time control gets to this part of the program. I have tried the clear and flush functions to no avail.
Issue 2: I am reading data from a source text file that would be regularly changed during the course of program run. After the program run is over, I am supposed to save the results(which is basically the source text file AND all updates) in a destination file. This destination file would then serve as the source file when next the program is run. In other words, I want a scenario where my results overwrite the original contents of the source file; implying that my source and destination files are now one, pretty much. How can I do this?

I am trying to print a specific line from a textfile
e.g
I have a text file called info.txt and inside it contains the id,item name, price, quantity
Code:
1,shirt,100,10
2,pants,50,9
3,pen,20,8
I know how to find a specific word at the line in the file but how do I find and print out the specific line e.g(print out just the entire contents of line 2)?
Code:
string temDescription;
ofstream fout;
int curLine = 0;

I've a problem here...
#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <conio.h>
#include <string>
#include <iomanip>
using namespace std;
int _tmain(int argc, _TCHAR* argv[])
[Code] ....
The program needs to be able to read the middle names within the text file named Info2.txt
Simply adding the Mname or any related value where the other to name values doesn't do anything and only the 1st line appears on the output.
Don Jon111012
Jack Bo Todd151015
Jill Jo Jane161011
Bob Jack Chuck 131513
Da Fu111012
That is the correct way it appears in the text file. Also I know it's commented out, but that just to keep the program from crashing.
current output
Survey Results:
Name Results
Don Jon 33.00
This is the Info1.txt file info by the way.
Ken A202017
Gus B151015
Bill C151512
Jara C151720
Lu E101510
Chow B171015
And the output
Survey Results:
Name Results
Ken A 57.00
Gus B40.00
Bill C42.00
Jara C52.00
Lu E35.00
Chow B 42.00
Which when ran with Info1 selected, it is the correct output I'm looking for. I've tried getline and other solutions and they didn't work.

I want to read this to one string called line. So far I have this code:
string line;
ifstream myfile ("/home/Test.txt");
if (myfile.is_open()) {
while (myfile.good()) {
getline (myfile, line);
for (int a = 0; a <= 335; a++) {
cout <<line.at(a);
} }
myfile.close();
}
so far its only printing the first line and then throwing an instance of 'std::out_of_range'

I'm having trouble trying to extra the second row from the array:
Code: double data[10][10] = {{0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,45},{0,13,22,37,54,62,64,100,112,126}};
When I do this, it posts the entire array:
Code: int x,y;
for(x=0;x<2;x++)
{
for(y=0;y<10;y++)
{
printf("%.0lf ",data[1][y]);
}
}

/*assume array is already initialized and declared and is of array type string.*/
int i = 2;
int j = 1;
string newvalue;
cout<<"Current value at array[i][j] is "<<array[i][j]<<endl;
cout<<"Enter new value "<<endl;
cin>>newvalue;
array[i][j]= newvalue; //PROBLEM IS IN THIS LINE.
cout<<endl;
cout<<array[i][j]<<endl;
I'm having lots of trouble with storing a cin string text into a string array. It just seem that after I cin newvalue, the program crashes. Is this way of storing it considered illegal? I'm just a beginner with 5 months of coding experience in C++.

We have an assignment to produce code to gather a string of input from the user in which they are entering a date. We then have to extract parts of that string to make substrings, and display different formats for the date(I will add my code in here so you can see what I have done). It took me a long while plucking away at this to understand this part. You will see that at the end of my code I have opened a file months.txt. We were provided with a file which states months corresponding to dates. I.e. 01January 02February 03March 04April, and so on until December. Exactly how I have typed it is how it is in the file.
I understand how to open and extract what is in the file as a string. I have extracted this as a string called myMonth (as you can see in the code as well) NOW,
I am supposed to have the program search for the month in the file, matching that to the month the user has input earlier, and then use the number infront of that month. I understand the basics of using find(), and making substrings. But how on earth do you get the computer to correlate what the user has input for a month, to finding that in the file, and then using the correct number.
Here is the code I have done so far:
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
string myDate; // Date input from user;
string myMonth; // Input from months.txt
[Code] ....

I got as far as getting a web page into an IHTMLDocument2 but I don't know what to do from there, all the examples I found are C# or .NET or something else I don't understand.
Any simple example in C++ of getting all the links from an IHTMLDocument2 ?
I was able to do this:
Code:
IHTMLElementCollection* collection;
hResult=document->get_links(&collection);
long nLinks;
collection->get_length(&nLinks); // returns correct number
collection->Release();
How do I loop through the collection and extract the actual links ? Also, if they come out as BSTR do I simple treat them as WCHAR* ? If I can do that I can figure out the rest myself.
