Right, what I want to do is read in a file character file by file, and if the character "meets the criteria" (which aren't important here) I want to append it to a buffer. I've tried ever effing way imaginable (to my feeble C-mind), so I'm left with pretty much nothing, except this useless snippet:
I'm really not hot on string processing in C, as you can tellCode:while (! feof (f)) { ch = (char*) fgetc (f); /* When I try strncat I get an access violation */ strncat (line_buffer, ch, 1); }
Good class architecture is not like a Swiss Army Knife; it should be more like a well balanced throwing knife.

a) It' s bad to use feof to control a loop.
b) The best way to approach you problem would be to make a separate variable to keep track of where in the line_buffer you are, and just increment it every time you add a character.
