This code compiles fine, but i get an illegal operation once the program gets to the strcat() line, and i have no friggin clue.
the program reads from a file called settings and gets the first line of it, which is a directory to install something to.
(c:\whatever\whatever)
i am trying to append the installdir to the word "copy" so i can use this in a system(copy).Code:char *copy = "copy "; char installdir [64]; ifstream settings ("settings.cfg"); if (!settings.is_open()) { cout<<"Configuration file (settings.cfg) not found.\n"; } settings.getline (installdir, 64, '\n'); settings.close(); strcat (copy, installdir);
Anyone know why i am getting an illegal op?
