Reading a line from a txt file

[Nippashish]

I've run into kind of a wall as far as reading from files goes. I need a way to read the file line by line. Is there any standard function that I can use to read the file one line at a time?

Yep!

istream::getline will to the trick.

Apply it to an ifstream just like you would to cin, a la:

char buf[255];

ifstream infile;

infile.open("/home/user/file", ios::in);

infile.getline(buf, 255);

cout << buf << '\n';

Thanks, I knew it would be something easy.
