Hey,

I tried to search a string in a txt file, and write the found ones into another file.
but i have a problem, it seems that my code doesnt enter the while loop, becaus the cout<<"test" doesnt work.. :/

could somebody explain me where the problem is?

only problem now:

if i search for i.e. "Gutenberg eBook" i get also lines where only Gutenberg or only eBook where written...

how can i change != string::npos that i only get the exact ones?

The problem is on line 21: you get only the first word (i.e. "Gutenberg") since >> stops at the first space. use getline() for the whole line
