Thread: comparing two files

hi guys

i think i have found the solution for the thead i posted a week ago. now i'm actually reading the file as a .txt file. here's the code:

Code:

[tag]

#include <iostream>
#include <conio>
#include "tokenizer.h"

void menu();
void option();

int main()
{
	char ctr;
	do
   {
   	clrscr();
      menu();

      do
      {
      	cout<<"\n\n\t Proceed with the next test case? (Y/N): \n";
         cin>>ctr;
      }while(ctr!='y' && ctr!='Y' && ctr!='n' && ctr!='N');
   }while(ctr=='y' || ctr=='Y');

  return 1;
}//end main

void menu()
{
		cout<<"\n\n\n";
		cout<<"\n\t\t          * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *  \n\n";
   	cout<<"\n\t\t\t                   TESCAGEN: BB vs WB\n";
		cout<<"\n\n\t\t\t            Press S to Start the Program\n\n";
      cout<<"\n\n\t\t	    	    Press Q to Quit the Program\n";
   	cout<<"\n\t\t          * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * \n";

      option();
}

void option()
{
      char menu;
      ifstream infile;

      cout<<"\n\n\t\t\t\t Please enter your choice: ";
      cin>>menu;

      if(isalpha(menu))
      switch(menu)
      {
      	case 'S':
         case 's':

         infile.open("ass.txt");

         string line;
         vector <string> tokens;
         bool endOfFile = infile.eof();
         int count =0;

         while(!endOfFile)
         {
         	endOfFile = getStringAndTokens(infile, line, tokens);

            if(!endOfFile)
            {
            	count++;
               cout<<count<<")"<<line<<endl<<endl;

               for(int i=0;i<tokens.size();i++)
               {
               	cout<<tokens[i]<<endl;
               }

               cout<<"\n-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=\n"<<endl;

               ifstream(infile);
               system("Pause");

            }//end if

         }//end while

         break;

      }//end switch
      else
      	cout<<"\t\t Wrong key in. Please try again.\n\n";
}

i kinda save the identifiers in another text file. let's say for identifier /*1*/, i save it in if.txt

if(i==1||i==x)

my question is, how would i compare those two files (ass.txt and if.txt) and then stated that if that identifier is found, in my case a test case will be generated for that identifier? is it possible to compare two files?
