Thread: Problem I can't seem to solve

Hello all

I've got an assignment to make a quiz.
First of all one must be able to create users with a passwords
when the program starts, it ask if you want to create a user/pass or login


creating I've done... it writes all the users to a file
both username and password are max 15 long...
they are written to a binary file :

----15 for username----- 15 for pasword----- (without the trails.. it's just white spaces)


now when I want to test my login. i've got a problem:

I first ask the user to enter pass en login
I save this but the watch of my compiler tells me it just saved what I write and not the 15 long

so during the stringcompare it's logical it doesn't compare:

more info on the script:

let's imagine i enter user1 and pass1
and that inside the file it says user1 and pass1:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <conio.h>


int login(void){

char user[15];
char pass[15];
char temp_user[17];
char temp_pass[17];
int sw_ok=1;
FILE *login;

clrscr();
printf("\t**********************************************\n");
printf("\t*                  Login                     *\n");
printf("\t**********************************************\n");

while (sw_ok)
{
login=fopen("users.dat", "rb");  
printf("username: ");
scanf("%15s", user); //according to watch it store "user1"
printf("Paswoord: ");
scanf("%15s", pass);  //according to watch it stores "pass1"


while(!feof(login))
{
	 fgets(temp_user,sizeof(user)+1,login); //gets "          user1"
	 fgets(temp_pass,sizeof(pass)+1,login); //gets "         pass1"
	

		if (strcmp(temp_user, user) == 0 && strcmp(temp_pass, pass) ==0) {
			printf("\nAccess OK\n");
			sw_ok=0;
			}
		else printf("\incorrect\n");

}



}
printf("Tataaaa");
return 0;
}

thanks for some feedback...
