fscanf

I've got some analysis code (myprog) that sucks in data using the following:

 if(5 == fscanf(in, "%s%lf%f%f%f", tag, & sec, & tgt, & s1, & s2))

which works just fine. But in the situation where I've got data files that are separated by commas, I'm currently doing something like:

 sed 's/,/ /g' data | myprog

Can I modify the format string in the fscanf() function to accept both delimitation formats?

Hi, I got the following code: char buffer[2047]; int charsRead; do { if(fscanf(file, "%2047[^\n]%n%*c", buffer, &charsRead) == 1) { // Do something } } while (charsRead == 2047); I wanted to convert this code to use dynamically allocated variables so that when calling this… >>> More

I've got some code executing in a while(fscanf != EOF) loop. However, even when fscanf has finished executing, I need to keep running that code until some conditions are met. I mean I guess I could copy/paste the code to outside the while(fscanf) loop, and only use global variables, but that seems… >>> More

What is the best option if I want to "upgrade" old C-code to newer C++ when reading a file with a semicolon delimiter: /* reading in from file C-like: */ fscanf(tFile, "%d", &mypost.nr); /*delimiter ; */ fscanf(tFile, " ;%[^;];", mypost.aftername);/* delimiter ; */ fscanf(tFile, " %[^;]", mypost… >>> More
