Question

#include <iostream>

#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

// Functions Prototype

void jokeFile(fstream &);

void punchFile(fstream &);

int main()

{

// Create the 2 files

fstream file1,file2;

// Open the files

file1.open("joke.txt", ios::in);

file2.open("punchline.txt", ios::in);

while (!file1.eof())

{

jokeFile(file1);

}

while (!file2.eof())

{

punchFile(file2);

}

// Close the files

file1.close();

file2.close();

system ("pause");

return 0;

}

void jokeFile (fstream &file)

{

while (!file.eof())

{

char line[20];

file.getline (line,21, " ");

cout << line << endl;

}

}

void (punchFile (fstream &file))

{

int i = 3;

char ch;

char line[30];

file.seekg (0L, ios::end);

file.seekg (-3L, ios::end);

ch = file.get();

while (ch != " ")

{

file.seekg (-i, ios::end);

ch = file.get();

i++;

}

file.getline (line, i);

cout << line;

cout << endl;

}

The errors are in bold and below:

punchline.cpp(55): error C2664: 'std::basic_istream<_Elem,_Traits> &std::basic_istream<_Elem,_Traits>::getline(_Elem *,std::streamsize,_Elem)' : cannot convert parameter 3 from 'const char [2]' to 'char'

with

[

_Elem=char,

_Traits=std::char_traits<char>

]

There is no context in which this conversion is possible

punchline.cpp(76): error C2446: '!=' : no conversion from 'const char *' to 'int'

There is no context in which this conversion is possible

punchline.cpp(76): error C2040: '!=' : 'int' differs in levels of indirection from 'const char [2]'

Explanation / Answer

try this code:

#include <iostream>

#include <fstream>

using namespace std;

// Functions Prototype

void jokeFile(fstream &);

void punchFile(fstream &);

int main()

{

// Create the 2 files

fstream file1,file2;

// Open the files

file1.open("joke.txt", ios::in);

file2.open("punchline.txt", ios::in);

while (!file1.eof())

{

jokeFile(file1);

}

while (!file2.eof())

{

punchFile(file2);

}

// Close the files

file1.close();

file2.close();

system ("pause");

return 0;

}

void jokeFile (fstream &file)

{

while (!file.eof())

{

char line[20];

file.getline (line,21, ' ');  

cout << line << endl;

}

}

void (punchFile (fstream &file))

{

int i = 3;

char ch;

char line[30];

file.seekg (0L, ios::end);

file.seekg (-3L, ios::end);

ch = file.get();

while (ch != ' ')

{

file.seekg (-i, ios::end);

ch = file.get();

i++;

}

file.getline (line, i);

cout << line;

cout << endl;

}
