C++ :: Remove Comments From Input File And Then Put It Into Output File
Mar 11, 2013
I have written this code to remove the comments from an input file and then put it into an output file. The program compiles and runs but it removes the whole line of code when it encounters a /* */ type comment. I believe the problem is in the while loop but I just don't know where.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main(void) {
string infile, outfile;
ifstream source;
ofstream target;
[Code]...

I am working on a program where I am reading in a text file to be parsed to load data objects into their appropriate classes. I have a class to load in this file and to parse its contents. I am at the point where I would like to include the ability to have both C and C++ style comments in this text file. My current class has a constructor that takes in const std::string for its file name. Upon construction I have a while loop that calls a member function getNextLine() as long as this is true this loader class object then calls parseGui(). All of this works correctly so far. Within the function getNextLine() looks like this:
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// getNextLine()
// Returns True If It Got A Line Of Text (Could Be Blank If It Is All Commented Out Or
// If It Truly Was A Blank Line). False Is Returned When There Is No More Data In The File
bool GuiLoader::getNextLine() {
if ( !_file.readLine( _strLine ) ) {
return false;
[Code] ....
As you can see this getNextLine() method reads in a single line of text and saves it into its member variable which is a std::string. It increments the line number, then a utility function trims out leading and ending white spaces. The next part is where this class calls a member function to remove comments. It is in here where I need to parse the string to look for comments either "//" C++ style line comments or "/* ... */" C style block comments that can span multiple lines. I have tried many different ways to go about doing this, and I am stuck on the C style comments. A note to consider is this: the way this code is designed is reading in a line of text from the file into a string variable and in doing so it is not logical for me to read in the complete file and do a pre-parse scan or analyzer.
This is what I have so far, however there are still cases that this code will fail on
// ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// removeComments()
void GuiLoader::removeComments() {
const unsigned tokenLength = 1;
static std::string::size_type indexA;
static std::string::size_type indexB;
const std::string commentStartingToken( "/" );
const std::string blockCommentStartingQualifier( "*" );
[Code] .....
An example of where this code will fail is when it encounters a single '/' any where on a line of text as it goes into an infinite loop. I am not sure on how to go about skipping this lonely '/' and advanced the index to look for a possible next '/' that belongs to a '//' or a '/*'. I know that this is sort of trivial, but for some reason or another I am having writers block.

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?

One of my class assignments is to create a program that receive a .txt file containing a students name and their grades as follows:
John K. 99, 87, 57, 89, 90, 95
Amanda B. Jones 100, 88, 76, 99, 86, 92
etc..
The number of students is unknown until run time. You have to take those grades and average them weighing the first (4) at 10% a piece and the last (2) at 30% each.
Then return an output file with the students name and their letter grade A,B,C,D,F based on their computed score. In addition, on screen it needs to display the average scores for each Q1, Q2, etc. as well as the minimum and maximum for each test on the screen. I am having a hard time in assigning the scores to a variable so that they can then be computed as an average and then used to determine a letter grade. I have begun to write the code and am a bit stuck..here's what I have so far:
Code:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <math.h>
[Code]....

The problem I'm having now is how to go about passing the grades to the function computeGrade and then compute the average and return that to the function.

I have a program where I will read in a certain .txt file, such as "financial_data.txt" and I will be doing some sorting with this data.
I want my program to write out the sorted data to an output file and I want the name of the output file to be based off of the input name. For example, since my input file is "financial_data.txt", I want the output file name to be "financial_data_out.txt".
I am having a hard time finding examples online and in my reference manuals...

I have code that reads an input file and generates an output file .For reading the input file we have a xml file.If there is an error while reading or writing the output file the an errored file is generated. But in the errrored file the fields are not coming as in accordance with the reader xml . They are coming randomly . In the module for reading and writing the errored file list is being used . What should be done to write in the errored file as the reader xml fields.

I need to extract comments from a C file, which are usually marked with " /* This is a comment */ ". It seems to me that I need to calculate first at what position is the / and then ask it if on the very next position to the / operand is the *, if it is then I need check where is the next * and if / operand is immediately next to it. At last I need to take everything between values that the first and second * have. But I don't know how to write that in code.
This was supposed to be done in c++.

How to structure the input of one .dat file and outputting into another one. I have to loop through a file structured "doe, john, 1500", check for errors and then increase the mp by 50. You also have to do this through using a person class too. I think I need to use a while loop to go to eof and use getline to input correctly, but im not sure how to structure it.
Data file:
Horowitz,Jake,1200.24
Flabitz,Bubba,1712.38
Blackwell,Sharon,1872.93
Molerat,Rufus,501.00
Goodall,Jane,1567.43

So I am trying to create a program that reads a series of files and creates a graph plotting points from the file. So far my code looks a little something like this -
include <iostream>
include "ccc_x11.h"
include "ccc_shap.h"
include "ccc_win.h"
include <fstream>
using namespace std ;
int ccc_win_main() {
cwin.coord(-10, -10, 10, 10);
[Code] ....
However when I run the program nothing happens. I think it has to do with the way I set up my files, which looks a little something like this-
-9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -9 -7 -7 -6 -6 -5 -5 -4 6 3 1 -1 -3 -6 5 -5 4 -4 2 -2 0
The first thirteen numbers are the x values of the points, and the last thirteen are the y values of the points. Is there any other way to have my program read the file and display the given points?? I would use getline() however that would make my point into a string, and I dont really know how to convert a string to a double before putting the variable into a point.

I am currently confused on how to get the highest and lowest number from a list of 7 numbers for a File Output. Lets say i have 165 19 654 816 654 987 324. How would i get the 987 for the highest and the 19 as the lowest? Those numbers are not fixed numbers, i need to be able to input any combination of numbers and still be able to get the highest and lowest numbers from the list of 7 numbers.

I have a C++ program that performs calculations on numbers in a text file. However, suppose we have additional words in the text file such as "Title". In this instance, the program will not calculate the numbers in the file because of the text.
How do we remove text from a file using the C++ program? e.g. if I wanted to specify the program to remove any instances of the word "Title", how would I do it?

I'm using the code found on the site here:
//* remove example: remove myfile.txt */
#include <stdio.h>
int main () {
if( remove( "myfile.txt" ) != 0 )
perror( "Error deleting file" );
[Code] ....
I replaced the myfile.txt with the directory of the file I want deleted.
"C:SOUNDSsavegame.dat"
It returns: Error deleting file. No such file or directory exists.
I've triple checked the directory. Its correct. I must be using this incorrectly. How?

I want to remove some character in my file. too i want to replace some char to another. I know the easiest way for this job is we write final text in file. i mean we first produce sightly text then write it in file . I don't want use of temporary string.

I know this is how you read from a file. I also want to print my output to the same name of the file plus ".txt". So if my file is called "text" I want to print it to a file called "text.txt".
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
[Code]....
Would it be something like this? Is it better to use "a" or "w" in the fopen? I want to write to it several times.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdbool.h>
