stupid question about std::cin

[Jerome Conus]

Hi ! I'm sure this is a stupid question, but, if I do this : char Buffer[10]; std::cin >> Buffer; How can I make sure that the input won't be longer than the buffer ? Jérôme

Use

std::cin.read(Buffer,sizeof(Buffer));

(caveat, this does not append and null terminating character.) Joaquín M López Muñoz Telefónica, Investigación y Desarrollo Want a Boost forum in Code Project? Vote here[^]!
