I am pretty new to C++. I just want to get a certain field on a ".csv" file, not all off it. I am pretty sure, it must be very easy, but I don't know how to do it. Here is my code to get all the ".csv" content :
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
// #include "Patient.h"
using namespace std;
int main()
{
// CPatient patient;
ifstream file("C:/Users/Alex/Desktop/STAGE/test.csv");
if(file)
{
// the file did open well
string line;
while(getline(file, line, ';')) //Until we did not reach the end we read
{
cout << line << endl; //Console Result
}
}
else
{
cout << "ERROR: Could not open this file." << endl;
}
system("PAUSE");
return 0;
}
If you can use boost
libraries, then boost::tokenizer
would provide the functionality you require. Most notablty, it correctly handles quoted field values that contain commas. The following is a code snippet copied from the linked page:
// simple_example_2.cpp
#include<iostream>
#include<boost/tokenizer.hpp>
#include<string>
int main(){
using namespace std;
using namespace boost;
string s = "Field 1,\"putting quotes around fields, allows commas\",Field 3";
tokenizer<escaped_list_separator<char> > tok(s);
for(tokenizer<escaped_list_separator<char> >::iterator beg=tok.begin();
beg!=tok.end();
++beg)
{
cout << *beg << "\n";
}
}
You could pass each ligne
read to a tokenizer
and extract the fields you require.
Try reading whole lines and split them afterwards:
int N = 5; // search the fifth field
char separator = ';';
while (std::getline(fichier, ligne)) {
// search for the Nth field
std::string::size_type pos = 0;
for (int i = 1; i < N; ++i)
pos = ligne.find_first_of(separator, pos) + 1;
std::string::size_type end = ligne.find_first_of(separator, pos);
// field is between [pos, end)
}
