Thread: Methods and file pointers

This doesn't work! You'll 99% likely to get a crash. Not to mention a warning or two.

yeah, I also thought so for a start (code is not very readable in a current state)
drater passes all needed vars as pointers so the fscanf call is OK

even it is seams to be opposite.

What can be done here - to change the names like

Code:

int fileScan(
		FILE*	fp, 
		char*	cityName, 
		int*	pPopulation, 
		int*	pSquareMileage, 
...
)
{
	int readItems = fscanf(fp, "%s %d %d %d %d %d %d", 
		cityName, pPopulation, pSquareMileage, ...);
	return readItems;
}
