data input problem

[Drj312]

the variable zipCode is not being read in on line 73 or 85. i am guessing i am using the wrong way to input it. advice please

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <iomanip>
#include <cstring>
using namespace std;

const int MAX_CLIENT_SIZE = 100;
const int FIRST_NAME_LEN = 11;
const int LAST_NAME_LEN = 13;
const int ADDRESS_LEN = 25;
const int CITY_NAME_LEN = 16;
const int STATE_LEN = 3;

struct CustomerType
{
	char lastName[LAST_NAME_LEN];
	char firstName[FIRST_NAME_LEN];
	char streetAddress[ADDRESS_LEN];
	char city[CITY_NAME_LEN];
	char state[STATE_LEN];
	int zipCode;
};

void reportHeading(ostream& outfile);
int getInfo(CustomerType struct_array[], istream& infile, int& count);
void printCustomers(ostream& outfile, CustomerType output[], int& count);
void sortByLastName(CustomerType struct_array[], int& count);

int main()
{
	int count;
	CustomerType clients[MAX_CLIENT_SIZE];

	ifstream infile("PJ902_customers.txt");
	if (!infile){
		cerr << "File loading failed.\n";
		return -1;
	}
	ofstream outfile("PJ902_report.txt");
	if (!outfile)
	{
		cerr << "File output failed.\n";
		return -1;
	}
	reportHeading(outfile);
	int success = getInfo(clients, infile, count);
	cout << success << endl;
	printCustomers(outfile, clients, count);



}

void reportHeading(ostream& outfile)
{
	outfile << setw(30) << "Customer Information Report\n";
	outfile <<	"Reported by Josh Panfil\n\n\n";
	outfile << setw(10) << "First Name" << setw(10) << "Last Name" << setw(9) << "Address"
		<< setw(20) << "City" << setw(8) << "State" << setw(12) << "Zip Code\n";
	outfile << setw(10) << "----------" << setw(10) << "---------" << setw(9) << "-------"
		<< setw(20) << "----" << setw(8) << "-----" << setw(12) << "--------\n";
	
}

int getInfo(CustomerType struct_array[], istream& infile, int& count)
{
	int index = 0;

	infile.get(struct_array[index].firstName, FIRST_NAME_LEN);
	infile.get(struct_array[index].lastName, LAST_NAME_LEN);
	infile.get(struct_array[index].streetAddress, ADDRESS_LEN);
	infile.get(struct_array[index].city, CITY_NAME_LEN);
	infile.get(struct_array[index].state, STATE_LEN);
	infile >> struct_array[index].zipCode; if (!infile) cerr << "Fail";
	
	while( index < MAX_CLIENT_SIZE && infile.good() )
	{
		index++;
		infile >> ws;

		infile.get(struct_array[index].firstName, FIRST_NAME_LEN);
		infile.get(struct_array[index].lastName, LAST_NAME_LEN);
		infile.get(struct_array[index].streetAddress, ADDRESS_LEN);
		infile.get(struct_array[index].city, CITY_NAME_LEN);
		infile.get(struct_array[index].state, STATE_LEN);
		infile >> struct_array[index].zipCode;
	}

	count = index;

	//Test the file status after reading in the data
	 if( index == MAX_CLIENT_SIZE && infile >> ws && infile.good() )
		 return 1; //indicator value for too many data
	 else if( !infile.eof() && infile.fail() )
	 	 return -1; //indicator value for bad data
	 else
		 return 0; //everything was successful
}

void printCustomers(ostream& outfile, CustomerType output[], int& count)
{
	for (int i = 0; i < count; i++){
		outfile << output[i].firstName << output[i].lastName << output[i].streetAddress
			<< output[i].city << output[i].state << output[i].zipCode << endl;
	}
}

this is the file. note: this doesnt show the correct number of spaces. there should be enough spaces in between so that the characters for each input equals the max for each

I think the problem is the reading in of the address. Its more than one word. Also its a variable number of words.

What you could do is read each word of each line into a vector<std::string> and then you could easily identify the first two and last 3 pieces of information from around the variable length address field.

Also I would use std::string rather than char arrays like this:

#include <string>

struct CustomerType
{
	std::string lastName;
	std::string firstName;
	std::string streetAddress;
	std::string city;
	std::string state;
	int zipCode;
};
