    ifstream whole file

    This probably isn't the first time this question has been asked, but how do you input an entire txt file to an array and then print it out, using ifstream?

    ifstream only reads files in
    ofstream puts files out

    First get the location of the file to be read in with ifstream
    Store the file into a buffer or array
    Create or open a different file (can be .txt or any other)
    Read the buffer or array out to the new file usint ofstream

    That is basicly how I would do it. Coding it could get quite tireing though.
