Thread: Simple Structure program

Thanks again for the help, so far. When I compile and run this:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>

#include <stdlib.h>

#include <string.h>

typedef struct wildroom{

        int x;

        int y;

        char symbol;

} wr;

int main(){

        FILE *minimap;

        wr wilddata[6][6];

        int x,y;

       

        minimap = fopen("./minimap.txt","r");

       

        if(minimap==NULL)

        {

                printf("Error in File Read\n");

                exit(0);

        }

       

        for(x=0;x<6;x++){

                for(y=0;y<6;y++){

                        wilddata[x][y].x=x;

                        wilddata[x][y].y=y;

                        wilddata[x][y].symbol = fgetc(minimap);

                }

        }

       

        for(x=0;x<6;x++){

                for(y=0;y<6;y++){

                        printf("%c",wilddata[x][y].symbol);

                }

                /*printf("\n");

                */

        }

                       

        fclose(minimap);

       

        return(1);

}

On a text file that looks like this:

Code:

01234
56789
abcde
fghij
klmno

It spits out this:

Code:

01234
56789
abcde
fghij
klmno
ÿ

That happens in CYGWIN after compiling with gcc. However, when I use the online compiler here:

http://www.groovyweb.uklinux.net/?pa...ry=onlinetools,

I get a dos file that runs perfectly and outputs the file perfectly. Any ideas on what could be causing the extra 'garbage'character?

If your text file is:


That's only 5 lines, numbered 0-4.

The recommended change ends me up with:

Code:

01234
56789
abcde
fghi

And that's it. I lose one character on the fourth line, and the entire fifth line. Again, when I compiled it 'as-is' it runs fine under dos. If you look a bit higher in the thread, it runs fine on another's linux system.

Is anyone else using CYGWIN, or familiar with this type of problem?
