Question
Need help with a File DisplayProgram. The program asks the user for a name of a file, theprogram opens the file and displays 24 lines of text at a time andthen pauses. The user strikes a key to display the next 24 lines oftext until the end.The problem is the code runs but only returning a few lines at atime...I believe due to the "fileName[SIZE]...1000.
Here is my code, any assistance would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
const int SIZE = 1000; //Array size for file name
char fileName[SIZE]; // Holdfile name
char ch; // Hold a character
fstream file; // File stream
// Get file name from user
cout << "Enter the file name you wish toopen and read: ";
cin.getline(fileName, SIZE);
// Open the file
file.open(fileName, ios::in);
if (!file)
{
cout << fileName<< " could not be opened. ";
return 0;
}
// Get 24 lines from file and display
char buff[1000];
file.getline(fileName, SIZE);
while (!file.eof())
{
cout << fileName;
file.getline(fileName,SIZE);
cout << " "
<< "(more) ";
cin.getline(buff, sizeofbuff);
for(int i = 0; i < 24&& file.getline(fileName, SIZE); i++);
}
// Close the file.
file.close();
return 0;
}
