Problem with fgets function

[killerboy]

I have a file foo.txt with 2 lines. I want to retrieve each of them in variables for use in the main code.

void reading_file() 
{ 
char *name = "foo.txt"; 
char line [BUFSIZ]; 

FILE *file = fopen (name, "r"); 
if (file != NULL) 
{ 
while (fgets (line, sizeof line, file) != NULL) 
{ 
printf("%s", line); 
} 
fclose (file); 
} 
else 
{ 
perror ("Impossible to open the file."); 
} 
}

If you want to use your variables in the main code you have to create storage space for your lines with a malloc.

Then (if you do not know the number of variables lines refer to the main code) you must do a dynamic sort a linked list that contains:

- A pointer to the malloc that contains your credit line
- A pointer to the next cell containing the next cell

For code I had think there's not too far already for a moment, I tried to find it in the evening if necessary.

My first line is set to 4 bytes. The second is an integer between 1 and 1000. I want to code if it is not too much a constraint. I used this piece of code using the function scanf that works and meets my needs but I do not know if this is optimal.

void reading_file()
{
   char *name = "foo.txt";   
   char value1[4];
   char value2[BUFSIZ];
   FILE *file;
   
   if ((file = fopen (name, "r")) == NULL)
   perror ("Impossible to open the file.");
   else
   {
      while ( fscanf ( file, "%s %s", value1, value2 ) == 2) 
      printf("%s\n%s\n", value1, value2);
   fclose (file);
   }
}

The problem is when I try to do a comparison test between value1 and an integer, I have this error message:

Attention: Comparison between a pointer and an integer

This is normal: value1 is a pointer to an array of 4 characters.
