Newline parsing?

Quote:

---

I'm creating an XML parser (please don't suggest any. The point is, I'm making it myself), and I realized that while using fseek, you scrawl through the exact bytes of a file, but when you fread, 0x0A0D (newline character.. for some reason it's 2 bytes long) gets parsed to 0x0A.. it's very annoying, because the file MIGHT have just had 0x0A (not 0x0A0D) so I can't just add 1 to what I'm fseeking if I encounter a 0x0A in my parsed data, but I can't ignore it because that throws it off. Is there any way around this newline parsing problem?

got the solution. Open it as a binary file (the default is text). Add a 'b' to the end of your opening mode (e.g. "r" becomes "rb"). You don't need to change anything else

read the file in text (not binary) mode.

how do I do that?

>read the file in text (not binary) mode.
Wouldn't it be the opposite?

yeah it is, but I think I got it.. open it as fopen("rb") instead of ("r")

edit after testing: yes it works. thank you *edits post to include answer*

>open it as fopen("rb") instead of ("r")
Correct.

thanks
