RE: [Dev-C++] how to use strings

[Michael C. <jd...@ho...>]

Hi,

Did you get the fprintf to work because I am still having trouble.

I have also tried it at work on a HPUX 10.20 aCC compiler but neither 
version works for reading from a file.

  fprintf (stdout, "%s", fhandle);
  fprintf (stdout, "%s", *fhandle);

Note, the second version works on the Dev C++ compiler but reads the first 
line only.

And yes, I agree there are many ways to move the file pointer and that 
seeking to the end of a string is bad strategy. I was just trying to get the 
thing to read from a file using fprintf().
