c++ - unexpected characters

Paul (6/6) Apr 09 2007 Hi, ive tried twice to attach screen shots (jpegs) but unsucessful,

Bertel Brander (11/18) Apr 09 2007 Can we have the definition of "struct proform"?

Paul (439/439) Apr 09 2007 Hi Bertel, please find attached the complete

Bertel Brander (18/23) Apr 10 2007 I can't spot any immediate error in the code.

Hi, ive tried twice to attach screen shots (jpegs) but unsucessful,
so here is what im seeing when the crash/error occurs in the array
"raw_data" used to read in the data.

expected:  '12''\''02''\''2006'

unexpected: '2''9''\12'\0''2'1\''2006'

Can we have the definition of "struct proform"?
We might need open_file as well, all in all, a complete program would
be nice.
My guess is that you have a buffer overrun. You could change all
strcpy to strncpy and check length in fill_temp.

The source and .txt files are only readable from the web-interface.

Hi Bertel, please find attached the complete
program! (sorry) Ive added the header file
at the bottom of the program listing.  It
includes the definition of struct proform
and the function open_file.

I much appreciate your efforts.

 Hi Bertel, please find attached the complete
 program! (sorry) Ive added the header file
 at the bottom of the program listing.  It
 includes the definition of struct proform
 and the function open_file.

I can't spot any immediate error in the code.
I can't make it to fail based on the data I have.

The code is not very robust, a malformed line can cause
the program to fail.

The code seiems to do the same again and again in
a loop, the only variance is the input file, so
I would expect that t is a special line in the
file that cause the program to fail.

One way to narrow down the cause of the fail would
be to study the line just before and the current line
when the program fails.

If I can have a file that cause the problem, I can try
to debug the program, my email address is valid.
