Hi peeps i've got an problem with space and tabs in a text file.
i've build an app that reads a file and creates an array out of every line.
this works just fine but then I noticed that the array is cut of after every space and/or tabular. it just jumps to the next line.
is there a way to solve this issue
//Main.cpp
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <vector>
using namespace std;
int i;
int x;
int main(int argc, char *argv[])
{
string dataFile;
string myArray;
ifstream fin;
vector<string> myArray_list;
dataFile = "c:\\permissions.dat";
fin.open(dataFile.c_str());
if (fin.fail())
{
cout << "Error reading file! ";
return 0;
}
i = 0;
while( fin >> myArray){
myArray_list.push_back(myArray);
i++;
}
for ( x = 0; x < i; x++ ) {
cout << myArray_list[x] << endl;
}
system("PAUSE");
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}
And the text file i've made is a bit xml stylisch... not quite the same though :)
//Permissions.dat
<FILE_HEADER>
<File_name>Permissions.dat</File_name>
<File_owner>My Name</File_owner>
</FILE_HEADER>
<DB_TABLE>
<TABLE_HEADER>
<Table_name>Permissions</Table_name>
<Table_owner>MYUSERNAME</Table_owner>
<Table_nof>5</Table_nof>
<Table_nor>3</Table_nor>
</TABLE_HEADER>
<TABLE_CONTENT>
<Table_row><field>Name</field><field>UserName</field><field>Password</field><field>Function</field><field>Access Level</field></Table_row>
<Table_row><field>MY NAME</field><field>MYUSERNAME</field><field>md5hashed</field><field>Backup IC'er</field><field>99</field></Table_row>
<Table_row><field>Test User</field><field>test123</field><field>md5password</field><field>Beta tester</field><field>10</field></Table_row>
</TABLE_CONTENT>
</DB_TABLE>
and this is the result:
<FILE_HEADER>
<File_name>Permissions.dat</File_name>
<File_owner>My
Name</File_owner>
</FILE_HEADER>
<DB_TABLE>
<TABLE_HEADER>
<Table_name>Permissions</Table_name>
<Table_owner>MYUSERNAME</Table_owner>
<Table_nof>5</Table_nof>
<Table_nor>3</Table_nor>
</TABLE_HEADER>
<TABLE_CONTENT>
<Table_row><field>Name</field><field>UserName</field><field>Password</field><fie
ld>Function</field><field>Access
Level</field></Table_row>
<Table_row><field>MY
NAME</field><field>MYUSERNAME</field><field>md5hashed</field><field>Backup
IC'er</field><field>99</field></Table_row>
<Table_row><field>Test
User</field><field>test123</field><field>md5password</field><field>Beta
tester</field><field>10</field></Table_row>
</TABLE_CONTENT>
</DB_TABLE>

Goal is to homebrew a multi user database.
this is just one of my first steps.
any help is appreciated.
Thanks in advanced
