Reading a file using istream_iterator

<EDIT: uhm, the following is in reply to post#3, of course>

yes, and I already explained why getline does not work with your code, it's because of the way you're initializing the stringstream. Consider the following:

std::istringstream iss( "text10\0text20\0text30\0text40\0text50\0text60\0" );

int main()
{
	std::string buffer;

	while( std::getline( iss, buffer, char() ) )
	{
		std::cout << buffer << std::endl;
	}
}

this won't work, outputting "text10". But this:

char iss_buf[] = "text10\0text20\0text30\0text40\0text50\0text60\0";
std::istringstream iss( std::string( iss_buf, sizeof(iss_buf) ) );

int main()
{
	std::string buffer;

	while( std::getline( iss, buffer, char() ) )
	{
		std::cout << buffer << std::endl;
	}
}

works as expected.
