Hi,
I'm having some trouble using boost::iostreams::basic_file (and other
devices) with unsigned char character types. It's likely a lack of
understanding on my part, so any help is greatly appreciated. Here is
what I'd like to do, and the results from my g++ v4.5.0 compilation.
Thanks for your time.
# include
# include
int main()
{
namespace io = boost::iostreams;
io::basic_file_source< unsigned char > file( "us.cpp" );
int ch = io::get( file );
return 0;
}
