You have the following comment (where the real code presumably actually
writes to a file):

  //here I have the data that I want to store, 
  //but I am inside the loop
  //so I thought I needed all the information 
  //first b/f storing into my struct.
  //write the data to a file here

If you can write to a file here, why can't you store to a struct or
collection (linked list, vector, array, whatever) of structs?  I can't
figure out what the looping has to do with it.
