other posts talk about the fopen function and don't really give any solutions to this
the var that has the file path is a char* and has been converted from a system::string^
it is completely valid when I paste it in windows bar.
Code:
private: System::Void button3_Click(System::Object^ sender, System::EventArgs^ e) {
if(textBox1->Text[0] == (char)'\0' || textBox2->Text[0] == (char)'\0'){
MessageBox::Show("Please select a valid m3u and path", "Problem",
MessageBoxButtons::OK, MessageBoxIcon::Exclamation);
}
else{
button3->Text = "Working...";
ReadList();
}
}
public: int Form1::ReadList(){
ifstream pile;
int count = 0;
char inputbuff[100] ={'\0'},*tok,*folder;
String^ poo = textBox1->Text;
progressBar1->Maximum = File_Quant(poo);
pile.open(ConvertString(poo),ifstream::in);
public: char* Form1::ConvertString(String^ cnv){
int length = cnv->Length;
char *out = new char[length+1];
for(int i = 0;i < length;i++){
out[i] = (char) cnv[i];
out[length] = '\0';
}
return out;
}
it crashes right at the pile.open() function call when I put breakpoints in it says , debug assertion failed
and shows me the fclose.c file location and Expression: (stream != NULL)
I know there are other posts similiar but not exactly like this and they don't offer much in the way of a solution.
Thanks.
