C++ cin problems. not capturing input from user
- by user69514
I have the following method which is not capturing anything from the user.If I input New Band for the artist name, it only captures "New" and it lefts out "Band". If I use cin.getline() instead nothing is captured. Any ideas how to fix this?
char* artist = new char [256];
char * getArtist()
{
cout << "Enter Artist of CD: " << endl;
cin >> artist;
cin.ignore(1000, '\n');
cout << "artist is " << artist << endl;
return artist;
}
