StdIn problem

[makaveliuk]

How do you look for an EOF on the Stdin?

I am reading data from Redmon on the Stdin to write to a file but it keeps ending input early, I am using a loop:

while( bResult && nBytesRead > 0 )
{
bResult = ReadFile(hStdIn, &inBuffer, 81920, &nBytesRead, NULL);
}

Any ideas?

stdin is not a regular file, so use scanf function to read it.

Could you give me an example?

I have tried it but it is worse than the ReadFile() method.

I am reading print output from Redmon and placing it in a temporary file with the loop.

Thanks.

what is Redmon?

char buff[BUFSIZ];
while ( fgets( buff, sizeof buff, stdin ) != NULL ) {
  // do stuff
}

This loop will read stdin until EOF or error
Use feof() and ferror() to find out which
