Thread: Weird crash error I can't figure out

My problem is that it runs though strcpy(*Ingrediants, temp) the first time then run times out the second time though.

This code is meant to populate a dynamic array using all the words from a .txt I made myself.

Does anyone know why this is happening?

Code:

int main()
{
	char ** Ingrediants = 0;
	int * counter = 0;
	ifstream myfile("pantry.txt");
	int i = 0;
	int numberOfIngrediants = 0;
	int choice = 0;
	char goAgain = 'n';

	while(goAgain = 'y'){
	//Checks to see if file opens.
	if(myfile.fail())
	{
		cout << "File did not open";
	}

	//Populates ** Ingrediants from "pantry.txt"
	while(!myfile.eof())
	{
		char temp[30];
		myfile.getline(temp, 30, '\n');
		char ** Ingrediants = new char*[numberOfIngrediants];
		Ingrediants[numberOfIngrediants] = new char (strlen(temp));
		strcpy(*Ingrediants, temp);


		//char ** NewIngrediants = new char*[numberOfIngrediants + 1];
		//NewIngrediants = Ingrediants;
		i++;
		numberOfIngrediants++;
//		=======================

I fixed most of what you said but I'm only familiar with myfile.eof so that's why I use it, I can't use strings as this is a school assignment and its driving me crazy. I still get the same error though? Where on the 2nd pass through, strcpy(*NewIngrediants, temp) gets a bad address.

Code:

int main()
{
	char ** Ingrediants = 0;
	int * counter = 0;
	ifstream myfile("pantry.txt");
	int i = 0;
	int numberOfIngrediants = 0;
	int choice = 0;
	char goAgain = 'n';

	while(goAgain == 'y'){
	//Checks to see if file opens.
	if(myfile.fail())
	{
		cout << "File did not open";
	}

	//Populates ** Ingrediants from "pantry.txt"
	while(!myfile.eof())
	{
		char temp[30];
		myfile.getline(temp, 30, '\n');
		char ** NewIngrediants = new char*[numberOfIngrediants];
		NewIngrediants[numberOfIngrediants] = new char (strlen(temp) + 1);
		strcpy(*NewIngrediants, temp);

		Ingrediants[numberOfIngrediants] = *NewIngrediants;
		delete [] NewIngrediants;
		i++;
		numberOfIngrediants++;
