I have to read in a .csv file with data which has a newline character at the end of each object's data. Below is an example of the file:

5201,Egestas LLC,Clear,NA,NA,408881,544329
5202,Elementum Sem Associates,Clear,NA,NA,426281,528325

I have been trying to use various getline(inFS, number, ',') statements, however, have been getting invalid conversion from 'void*' to 'char**' [-fpermission]. Is this because getline() can only take in strings? Is there an easier or more specific way to read in .csv files?

  • `std::getline(inFS, number, ',')` wouldn't cause that error. Can you show a minimal example of the real code that causes this problem? – David G Feb 23 '14 at 01:37
