I'm currently working on an assignment and this have had me stuck for hours. Can someone please help me point out why this isn't working for me?
struct book
{
char title[25];
char author[50];
char subject[20];
int callNumber;
char publisher[250];
char publishDate[11];
char location[20];
char status[11];
char type[12];
int circulationPeriod;
int costOfBook;
};
void PrintBookList(struct book **bookList)
{
int i;
for(i = 0; i < sizeof(bookList); i++)
{
struct book newBook = *bookList[i];
printf("%s;%s;%s;%d;%s;%s;%s;%s;%s;%d;%d\n",newBook.title, newBook.author, newBook.subject,
newBook.callNumber,newBook.publisher, newBook.publishDate, newBook.location, newBook.status,
newBook.type,newBook.circulationPeriod, newBook.costOfBook);
}
}
void GetBookList(struct book** bookList)
{
FILE* file = fopen("book.txt", "r");
struct book newBook[1024];
int i = 0;
while(fscanf(file, "%s;%s;%s;%d;%s;%s;%s;%s;%s;%d;%d",
&newBook[i].title, &newBook[i].author, &newBook[i].subject,
&newBook[i].callNumber,&newBook[i].publisher, &newBook[i].publishDate,
&newBook[i].location, &newBook[i].status,
&newBook[i].type,&newBook[i].circulationPeriod, &newBook[i].costOfBook) != EOF)
{
bookList[i] = &newBook[i];
i++;
}
/*while(fscanf(file, "%s;%s;%s;%d;%s;%s;%s;%s;%s;%d;%d",
&bookList[i].title, &bookList[i].author, &bookList[i].subject,
&bookList[i].callNumber, &bookList[i].publisher, &bookList[i].publishDate,
&bookList[i].location, &bookList[i].status, &bookList[i].type,
&bookList[i].circulationPeriod, &bookList[i].costOfBook) != EOF)
{
i++;
}*/
PrintBookList(bookList);
fclose(file);
}
int main()
{
struct book *bookList[1024];
GetBookList(bookList);
}
I get no errors or warnings on compile
it should print the content of the file, just like it is in the file.
