Infile/Outfile.c_str() question

[lisal]

* Is there another way to open an infile and outfile? I think the problem I am having is the .c_str(). It seems like it only outputs the first string in the whole input file and forgets about the rest. **

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#include <stdio.h>

using namespace std;

#define USE_SAVED_MARKER 0

void main()
{
string path = &quot;c:\\projects\\qrt4\\&quot;;
string text = &quot;.txt&quot;;

string filename;
string outfile;

cout << &quot;Enter desired filename: &quot;;
cin >> filename;
filename = path + filename + text;

--> ifstream in(filename.c_str());

cout << &quot;Enter output file: &quot;;
cin >> outfile;

outfile = path + outfile + text;
--> ofstream out(outfile.c_str());

You may not be looping properly... you need to physically read in each line.
