String to int conversion

[solo2wolf]

The following code is supposed to read in a line from a.txt file and identify two integers separated by a whitespace character. It doesn't seem to work however and I really don't understand why. Any help would be fantastic!

fstream out_file;
out_file.open("tracetest1.txt", ios::out);

for (int i=0;i<10;i++)
{
out_file<<hex<<i+1000<<" "<<i+1000000<<endl;
}

out_file.close();

int CPU[2][10];


fstream input_file;
input_file.open("tracetest1.txt", ios::in);
if (!input_file.good())
{
cout << "FATAL ERROR: Could not open file 'trace.dat'";
system("PAUSE");
exit(1);
}

for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
{
input_file >> CPU[0][i];
input_file >> CPU[1][i];
cout<< hex<< CPU[0][i] << " " <<CPU[1][i]<< endl;
}

input_file.close();


please share any insight you can

When you say it doesn't work, what do you mean? What are you expecting it to output?

It outputs a bunch of c's:

ccccccccccc ccccccccccccc
cccccccccc cccccccccccccc

etc.

it is supposed to output the numbers it's read in from the file it creates, but it doesn't.

You're missing some hexes in your program. If your program doesn't know in advance that what it's reading in is a hexadecimal number, then how's it supposed to know that it's not garbage? :)
