Re: [Dev-C++] passing the content of a string to a variable from

[David M. <dem...@uw...>]

Looks like what you actually want is something like this:

char *FileContent(file *fp)
{
  char *buf;
  // Open the file...
  int i =3D fseek(fp, SEEK_END) + 1;
  buf =3D malloc(sizeof(i));
  fseek(fp, SEEK_SET);
  for(char ch =3D fgetc(fp); ch !=3D EOF; buf++ =3D ch);
  return buf;
}

I think this should work at least.  The code is off the top of my head and
untested.
