Unable to login using fstream

[Juany]

Hello friends,
I am working on project where I am using C++ plus as front end. In this project using fstream I have created one login program. In this program I save my all data in a text file. When I open that file I see something like:
username:password:level
Whenever I tried to retrieve the data from this file I get following error.
ifstream login(FileName);
login >> username >> password >> level; I will not able to get proper result. I get following result.
username = username:password:level
password = null
level = null
I don't know why I Unable to login using fstream. Please help me.

From your information it seems that you are getting problem due to ">>" operator. If your all data is in string then you can use following code.

 // It is used to take user name
getline(login,userid,':'); 
// It is used to take password
getline(login,passwords,':');
// It is used to check level 
getline(login,level,':');

After this you will not get any problem.

You have to use following code in your program to fix this problem. You have to first import that file into your program and then you have to retrieve all information like Username, Password and level. Just go through following code.

ifstream login("filename");
login.open("filename");
getline(login,username,':');
getline(login,password,':');
getline(login,level,':');
login.close();

It seems that you are using old C++ STL libraries and that's why you are getting such type of problem. In this case you have to use more advanced libraries to fix this problem. You have to use following library in starting to fix this problem.

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;

It seems that you are using wrong path for retrieving information from that file. You may be using "C:\data.txt" this path to access information and that's why you are getting such type of problem. In this case you have top use following path to fix this problem.
"C: emp.txt"
Just use this path in your program to access username and password information.
