Thread: ARGH: getline wants 3 args when I give 2, and 2 args when I give 3?

I have this in a function:

Code:

  CString path;
  ifstream fin;
  fin.open((LPCSTR)inputPath,ios::in);
   ....
	  getline(fin,path,'\n');

but I get this message:
error C2780: 'std::basic_istream<_Elem,_Traits> &std::getline(std::basic_istream<_Elem,_Traits> &,std::basic_string<_Elem,_Traits,_Alloc> &)' : expects 2 arguments - 3 provided
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\string(525) : see declaration of 'std::getline'

If I remove the third argument (the '\n'), I get this:
error C2780: 'std::basic_istream<_Elem,_Traits> &std::getline(std::basic_istream<_Elem,_Traits> &,std::basic_string<_Elem,_Traits,_Alloc> &,const _Elem)' : expects 3 arguments - 2 provided
c:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Vc7\include\string(473) : see declaration of 'std::getline'

What the?
