Чтобы прочитать весь файл в «массив» указателей на char, которые представляют строки, вы можете сделать:
#include <stddef.h> // size_t
#include <stdlib.h> // EXIT_SUCCESS, EXIT_FAILURE
#include <stdio.h> // malloc(), realloc(), free(), fgets()
#include <string.h> // strlen(), strcpy()
enum { BUFFER_SIZE = 30 }; // whatever line length you suspect the input file to be + 1
int main(void)
{
char const *filename = "test.txt";
FILE *is = fopen(filename, "r");
if (!is) {
fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't open \"%s\" for reading :(\n\n", filename);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
int result = EXIT_SUCCESS; // assume a happy ending
char buffer[BUFFER_SIZE];
size_t num_lines = 0;
char **lines = NULL;
while (fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), is)) {
++num_lines;
char **temp = realloc(lines, num_lines * sizeof(*lines));
if (!temp) {
fputs("Not enough memory :(\n\n", stderr);
fclose(is);
result = EXIT_FAILURE;
goto cleanup;
}
lines = temp;
size_t length = strlen(buffer);
length = strlen(buffer);
// remove a trailing newline if any:
if (length && buffer[length - 1] == '\n')
buffer[--length] = '\0';
size_t line_length = length;
lines[num_lines - 1] = malloc((length + 1) * sizeof(*lines));
if (!lines[num_lines - 1]) {
fputs("Not enough memory :(\n\n", stderr);
fclose(is);
result = EXIT_FAILURE;
goto cleanup;
}
strcpy(lines[num_lines - 1], buffer);
// as long as the buffer has been filled completely by the previous
// call to fgets() and a next call to fgets() also succeeds:
while (length == BUFFER_SIZE - 1 && fgets(buffer, sizeof(buffer), is)) {
length = strlen(buffer);
// remove a trailing newline if any:
if (length && buffer[length - 1] == '\n')
buffer[--length] = '\0';
char *temp = realloc(lines[num_lines - 1], line_length + length + 1);
if (!temp) {
fputs("Not enough memory :(\n\n", stderr);
fclose(is);
result = EXIT_FAILURE;
goto cleanup;
}
lines[num_lines - 1] = temp;
strcpy(lines[num_lines - 1] + line_length, buffer);
line_length += length;
}
}
fclose(is);
// use lines:
for (size_t i = 0; i < num_lines; ++i)
puts(lines[i]);
cleanup:
for (size_t i = 0; i < num_lines; ++i)
free(lines[i]);
free(lines);
return result;
}
Используя только двумерный массив фиксированного размера и fgetc () *) :
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
enum { MAX_LINES = 100, MAX_LINE_LENGTH = 100 };
int main(void)
{
char const *filename = "test.txt";
FILE *is = fopen(filename, "r");
if (!is) {
fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't open \"%s\" for reading :(\n\n", filename);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
char text[MAX_LINES][MAX_LINE_LENGTH + 1] = { 0 }; // zero-initialize the array
// so we don't have to care
size_t num_lines = 0; // about zero terminating
size_t current_column = 0; // every line
int ch;
// as long as we are still inside the bounds of the fixed size array
// and fgetc() doesn't return EOF
while (num_lines < MAX_LINES && current_column < MAX_LINE_LENGTH &&
(ch = fgetc(is)) != EOF)
{
if (ch == '\n') { // "move" num_lines and current_column to the next
++num_lines; // line.
current_column = 0;
continue;
}
text[num_lines][current_column++] = ch;
}
if (ch != EOF) {
fputs("The file is too big :(\n\n", stderr);
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
for (size_t i = 0; i <= num_lines; ++i)
puts(text[i]);
}
*) Можно сделать и с fgets().
