Thread: Problem in this function:

Code:

void order()
{
     system("COLOR 0A");
    listc();

    struct item food;
    int person_num , amount,i=0 , target[20] ,flag;

    FILE *pfile;
    FILE *ofile;

    pfile = fopen("food menu.txt","rb");
    ofile = fopen("order.txt","wb");




     if(pfile != NULL  &&  ofile != NULL)
             {
                 printf("Enter number of person-> ");
                 scanf("%d",&person_num);

                                 for(;i<person_num;i++)

                                  {
                                     printf("\n\nPerson %d enter food serial",i+1);
                                     scanf("%d",&target);
                                     printf("\n\nEnter amount");
                                     scanf("%d",&amount);
                                   printf("Thank You\n\n");
                                   }

             do {
                  fread(&food,sizeof(food),1,pfile);

                    if(!feof(pfile))
                      {
                          if ((strcmp) const char*, const char*(target,food.itemnum)==0)
                                {
                                    for(i<person_num;i++)

                                  {
                                     printf("\n\n\n\nPerson %d selected %s",i+1,food.itemname);

                                    printf("\nAmount is %d",&amount);
                                   // return SUCCESS;
                                  }

       }
   }
   }while(!feof(pfile));
    fclose(pfile);
    fclose(ofile);
             }
    if(flag==0)
     {
         printf("NO MATCH FOUND");
     }
}

The program is supposed to take input from the file "food menu.txt" and store it in wb mood in"order.txt"

The problem is it doesn't run. The compiler gives 2 error:
line 38: expected ')' before const
line 40: expected ';' before ')' token

Code:

void order()
{
     system("COLOR 0A");
    listc();

    struct item food;
    int person_num , amount,i=0 , target[20] ,flag;

    FILE *pfile;
    FILE *ofile;

    pfile = fopen("food menu.txt","rb");
    ofile = fopen("order.txt","wb");




     if(pfile != NULL  &&  ofile != NULL)
             {
                 printf("Enter number of person-> ");
                 scanf("%d",&person_num);

                                 for( i< person_num; i++)

                                  {
                                     printf("\n\nPerson %d enter food serial",i+1);
                                     scanf("%d",&target);
                                     printf("\n\nEnter amount");
                                     scanf("%d",&amount);
                                   printf("Thank You\n\n");
                                   }

             do {
                  fread(&food,sizeof(food),1,pfile);

                    if(!feof(pfile))
                      {
                          if ((strcmp const char*target, const char*food.itemnum)==0)
                                {
                                    for(i<person_num;i++)

                                  {


                                     printf("\n\n\n\nPerson %d selected %s",i+1,food.itemname);

                                    printf("\nAmount is %d",&amount);
                                   // return SUCCESS;
                                  }

       }
   }
   }while(!feof(pfile));
    fclose(pfile);
    fclose(ofile);
             }
    if(flag==0)
     {
         printf("NO MATCH FOUND");
     }
}

Read them. But I can't get the problem in my code.
Now line 23 is giving the same error as line 40.

Gotcha. Thanks.

I'm having a bit of problem with another function.
The function is supposed to edit information in a file. Which it does. But after editing one info, it shows the last item twice.

Code:

void edit1()
{
     int flag =0;
     char target[50];
     struct item food;
    FILE *ptr=fopen("food menu.txt", "rb");
    FILE *ptemp=fopen("temp.txt", "wb");

    printf("Enter Item name:\n");
    fflush(stdin);
    gets(target);

    if(ptr != NULL && ptemp != NULL)
    {
        do
        {
            fread(&food,sizeof(food),1,ptr);
            if(!feof(ptr))
            {
                if(strcmp(target,food.itemname)==0)
                {

                        printf("Enter new name:");
                        fflush(stdin);
                        gets(food.itemname);


                   }
            }fwrite(&food,sizeof(food),1,ptemp);



        }while(!feof(ptr));
        system("pause");
        fclose(ptr);
        fclose(ptemp);
        remove("food menu.txt");
        rename("temp.txt", "food menu.txt");
        system("cls");

}
else
{
    system("cls");
}
}
