Thread: file reading

Your problem was this, I imagine:

Code:

   /* Open menu file for reading. */
   fp1 = fopen(menuFile, "r");
   
   /* check if fp1 menu file exists*/
   if(fp1 == NULL)
   {
      printf("file error\n");
     /* should exit the function */ 
   }
   
   /* initialize the previous node to NULL*/
   prevCat = NULL;
   
   while((line = fgets(array, BUFFER_SIZE + 2, fp1)) != NULL)
   {

You don't free any of your data.
