Thread: find and replace

Iam reading in a file which has a strings like

This_Is_the_string

I would like to replace ever _ with a <space>. How would i go about this ?


This is the code i have so far and attached is the file am reading in. You can view another thread with the full code Here

Code:

void fillTable(StockTable& p)
{
	FILE* StockData;
	int tmpAmount,pos;
	long int tmpID;
	char tmpDes[30];
	float tmpPrice;

	StockData = fopen("stock.txt","rt");

	if(!StockData)
	 {
		cout<<"Error opening file...";
		exit(1);
	 }

	 cout<<"Creating table...\n";
	 while (fscanf(StockData, "%D\t%s\t%f\t%d", &tmpID, tmpDes,&tmpPrice,&tmpAmount) == 4)
	 {
		pos =  hashKey(tmpID);
		strupr(tmpDes);
		p.list[pos].intCatNumber = tmpID;
		strcpy(p.list[pos].strDescription, tmpDes);
		p.list[pos].intPrice = tmpPrice;
		p.list[pos].intQuantity = tmpAmount;
	 }

	fclose(StockData);
}

Code:

// pseudocode
loop through your string
    if current block=='_'
       set to space

very simple

Code:

for (int i;i<30;i++)
{
  if (p.list[pos].strDescription[i] == '_')
  p.list[pos].strDescription[i] = ' ';
}

DOH, i need some Zzzzzzz i think


Thanks!
