I'm new on the subject of data structures so forgive me if Im asking a stupid question, I've been trying to figure this out myself but got nowhere.
These are the functions I'm working on and I think I initialized the file properly. However I couldn't understand why the function GetString prints an infinite loop of spaces. I have another function that exported some data on the said file. When i deleted the ImportListOfCompanyData function everything seems in order and the file is exported as it should be. However when ImportListOfCompanyData is there, the file is NULL.
void char * GetString(FILE *fp)
{
char c;
while(c != '\n')
{
c = fgetc(fp);
printf("%c", c);
}
}
void ImportListOfCompanyData(char *FileName, struct CompanyType s[], int maxit1, int maxit2)
{
FILE * fp;
char c;
fp = fopen(FileName, "r");
if (fp==NULL)
{
printf("Error creating the file \n");
exit(1);
}
GetString(fp);
fclose(fp);
}
Someone asked for the complete code: It's bit long sorry!
