问题
I am doing a small college project where I have to add, edit and search records in/from file using OOP concept. Adding into file is working fine but whenever I try to read from file it is printing in unreadable texts. Here is full code and output. main.cpp
#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <fstream>
#define MIN 20
#define MAX 100
#include "student.h"
using namespace std;
void add_student();
void edit_student();
void search_student();
void addToFile(const Student&);
Student* fetchFromFile();
int getFileSize();
void updateFile(Student*);
// Student stud[MAX];
int main()
{
int choice;
system("cls");
system("Color B0");
while(1)
{

}
}
return 0;
}
int Student::id = getFileSize() - 1; //Initialize id equals to size of file

Sample output 1
When I add a student object to file
Sample output 2
Reading all records from file
Problem1: Showing garbage value of id.
Sample output 3
Adding another object to file
Sample output 4
Reading all objects from file
Sample output 5
Now went back and chose to edit record
Problem2: See how the records are printing in unreadable form.
Why is this happening. Now if I close program and run it again then it is still showing in unreadable text. Hope you get my issue. I want to have detailed explanation about this. Also, if I have done other miscellaneous mistakes, please let me know. Thank you!
回答1:
Student is too complicated to read with unformatted IO like read and write. In technical terms, it is not Trivially Copyable because it contain std::strings, and string is not Trivially Copyable.
The easiest thing to do is to abandon read and write. Most of your data is string data, so write << and >> overloads for Student and store everything as text.
friend std::ostream & operator<<(std::ostream & out,
const Student & stu)
{
out << stu.stdId << ',' <<stu.roll << ','<< stu.name... <<'\n';
return out;
}
Reading the data back in is a bit trickier
friend std::istream & operator>>(std::istream & in,
Student & stu)
{
std::string line;
if (std::getline(in, line))
{
std::stringstream strm(line);
if (!(strm >> stu.stdId >> comma >> stu.roll >> comma) ||
!std::getline(strm, stu.name, ',') ||
!std::getline(strm, stu.dob, ',') ||
...))
{ // If any read failed, mark the stream as failed so the caller knows.
out.setstate(std::ios_base::failbit);
}
}
return out;
}

First, a minor trick, add a empty constructor for class to initailial all members, integers{0}, and string{}, which will elminiate some unwanted gabages.
Student::Student() :stdId(0), roll(0), name{}, dob{}, phone{}, address{} {;}
Your major problem arised from the function fetchfomrfile() where you delete the fetched Student array, therefore the caller received a undefined data array:
Student* fetchFromFile()
{
int i=0;
Student obj;
Student* returnObj = new Student[MAX];
//reading records from file
fin.close();
delete[] returnObj;// <<<< youe deleted
return returnObj; // and return it as undefined
}
Since you are able to calculate the size of file, I suggest in the caller function:
void search_student(){
// Student* student = fetchFromFile();
Student *student = new Stduent [getFileSize()];
fecchFromFile(student); // use this array in fetch_file
// other things
}
Rewrite fetchFromFile as :
viod fetchFromFile(Stduent *ss)
{
// read file data to array ss[i];
}
