Need help with fstream

Hi, having trouble getting this to work with a .raw file...
When the texture is mapped it displays the image all in black. :(
Can someone please give me a hint as to what im doing wrong?

This is the image reading function:

Code:

---

//some previous declarations:
//typedef        GLubyte pixel;
//pixel image[MAXROW][MAXCOL][3];
//int charin;
//int r,c;
//ifstream in;

void InputImage(void)
{
        printf("Enter the name of the input file: ");
        gets(inf_name);

        in.open(inf_name,ios::binary);
   
        if(in.fail())  /* open failed */
        {
        puts("*** Can't open input file - please check file name typed!\n ");
        charin = getchar();
        exit(1);
        }

          for ( r = 0;  r < MAXROW; r++ )
                    for ( c = 0;  c < MAXCOL; c++)  {
                        if(in.eof()) {
                               
                            printf("*** End of file reached!\n ");
                            in.close();    /* close input file  */
                            charin = getchar();
                            exit(1);
                        }
                        else {
                       
                            in >> charin;
                            image[r][c][0] = image[r][c][1] = image[r][c][2] = charin;
                        }
                }
        in.close();    /* close input file  */
        printf("\nImage input completed!\n");
 }        /* end InputImage */

Any help would be great, thanks.

You need to read and write using the read and write functions in fstream since you are working with binary data. The operator>> does formatted input and skips over whitespace.
