Need help C++.
A code analysis says
When executed, your code tried to create an excessively large file. A common cause for this is an infinite loop. Carefully check the condition and the loop body of any loop that does output.
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
struct customer
{
string name, address, city, state, zip, telephone, date;
int balance;
};
void setCustomer(customer&);
void getCustomer(customer);
int main()
{
int size, action = 1;
cout << "*** Customer Accounts *** How many customers?: ";
cin >> size;
customer*database = new customer[size];
cout << " --- Create database of " << size << " customer(s)--- ";
while(action!=3)
{
cout << "** Menu ** (1) Enter account information (2) Display all account information (3) Exit the program >";
cin >> action;
cout << endl;
switch(action)
{
case 1:
{
int cnum;
cout << "customers: ";
for (int x = 0; x < size; x++)
cout << x + 1 << " : " << database[x].name << endl;
cout << " custmer number to change: ";
cin >> cnum;
if (cnum <= size && cnum > 0)
setCustomer(database[cnum - 1]);
else
cout << " invalid customer number! ";

Explanation / Answer
Checked the program and executed it.
All the loops (for and while seems fine). No existence of any infinite loop.
Overall Program runs fine.
