std::fgets - cppreference.com

char* fgets( char* str, int count, std::FILE* stream );

Reads at most count - 1 characters from the given file stream and stores them in the character array pointed to by str. Parsing stops if a newline character is found, in which case str will contain that newline character, or if end-of-file occurs. If bytes are read and no errors occur, writes a null character at the position immediately after the last character written to str.

[edit] Parameters str - pointer to an element of a char array count - maximum number of characters to write (typically the length of str) stream - file stream to read the data from [edit] Return value

str on success, null pointer on failure.

If the end-of-file condition is encountered, sets the eof indicator on stream (see std::feof()). This is only a failure if it causes no bytes to be read, in which case a null pointer is returned and the contents of the array pointed to by str are not altered (i.e. the first byte is not overwritten with a null character).

If the failure has been caused by some other error, sets the error indicator (see std::ferror()) on stream. The contents of the array pointed to by str are indeterminate (it may not even be null-terminated).

[edit] Notes

POSIX additionally requires that fgets sets errno if it encounters a failure other than the end-of-file condition.

Although the standard specification is unclear in the cases where count <= 1, common implementations do
