[Dev-C++] file.read() dosn't read all it should read

[Jakob E. <mai...@ko...>]

Ok, here is the thing.
I'm trying to read from a file. But for some reason the entire file wont =
=20
read.
It's really strange becaus fstream::read() is suposed to read all the dat=
a =20
at once (unlike readsome() )

Has any one of you ever run in to this problem.

The source:

   //get the filesize=09
   file.seekg( 0,ios_base::end );
   file_size =3D file.tellg();
   file.seekg( 0,ios_base::beg );


   p_buffer =3D new char[file_size];

   cout << "file size:" << file_size<<endl;

   file.read(p_buffer, file_size);

   cout << "gcount: "<< file.gcount()<<endl;

   ap_socket->send(p_buffer, file_size);

   delete p_buffer;

the output:
file size:6090
gcount: 5
