I am writing a simple program to take in two files. The terminal command line looks like this.
./fileIO foo.code foo.encode
When it runs, the second file is not read in. When I enter
./fileIO foo.code foo.code
it works. I can't seem to figure out why the second one is not opening. Any ideas? Thanks!
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <queue>
#include <iomanip>
#include <map>
#include <string>
#include <cassert>
using namespace std;
int main( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
// convert the C-style command line parameter to a C++-style string,
// so that we can do concatenation on it
assert( argc == 3 );
const string code = argv[1];
const string encode = argv[2];
string firstTextFile = code;
string secondTextFile = encode;
//manipulate the first infile
ifstream firstFile( firstTextFile.c_str(), ios::in );
if( !firstFile )
{
cerr << "Cannot open text file for input" << endl;
return 1;
}
string lineIn;
string codeSubstring;
string hexSubstring;
while( getline( firstFile, lineIn ) )
{
hexSubstring = lineIn.substr(0, 2);
codeSubstring = lineIn.substr(4, lineIn.length() );
cout << hexSubstring << ", " << codeSubstring << endl;
}
//manipulate the second infile
ifstream secondFile( secondTextFile.c_str(), ios::in );
if( !secondFile )
{
cerr << "Cannot open text file for input" << endl;
return 1;
}
char characterIn;
while( secondFile.get( characterIn ) )
{
cout << characterIn << endl;
}
return 0;
}
One thing you might want to try is adding the close() call as is standard procedure after you're done using files. Sometimes issues arise with re-opening files if they were not closed properly in a previous run.
firstFile.close();
secondFile.close();
Also, you may try restarting the computer if there is some lingering file handle that hasn't been released.
