Hi all - have the following code snippet
#include <iostream.h>
..
ifstream is("menu.dat", ios::binary|ios::nocreate);
while ( is.good() ) {
// Read a record in, then add it to the menu
is.read((char*)&item1, sizeof(menu_item));
...
however, item1 never gets changed when that line is run, and a is.rdstate
returns 3. also, it only does one loop, so when it hits the is.good check
the 2nd time, it falls out. I know that the file has more than enough data
to prevent reaching eof. It was written w/2 calls to
os.write((char*)&item1, sizeof(menu_item));
I am at a loss. I have also tried to replace the menu_item (name of class)
w/ item1 to no avail.
