hrmm i was wondering if someone could jsut write a very simple loop, that reads a line at a time from a file.

something like



Code:
istream& Message::read(istream& stream){

   while( end of file )
   {
       getline(....?...);
       /* read an int on next line of file? */
       getline(....?...);
   }     
   return stream;
}
