ifstream --- error maybe?

[Jason]

I wrote a piece of code that reads read in about 1000 int values from
a text file. I put a cout statement to verify that the input in the
code was working as anticipated. It seems to work fine until some
point when it just ouputs 0's. So I then took the code and made a app
that just read the file and it worked fine.

Does anyone have a suggestion.

Reduce the code to the smallest amount that still produces the problem and
post that code.

Yes. Post the code. We are programmers, not clairvoyants.

How are you checking for the end of the input? You should do something
like this:

int i = 0;
for(; i != 1000; ++i)
{
int val;
if (!(stream >> val))
break;
//assign val to whatever
}

if (i < 1000)
{
//something went wrong
//check stream.eof(), stream.bad() and stream.fail().
}
