Using getline for multiple cstrings?

[quillandsaber]

I'm trying to extract lines from a text file. Because multiple lines make up one "set" of data, I need to have multiple variables to represent each line for processing's sake. Here's my simplified code of the problem:

  #include <iostream>
  #include <cstring>

  using namespace std;

  int main() {
    char name[31];
    char address[81];
    ifstream inFile;
    //open file
    inFile.open("file.txt");

    inFile.getline(name, 31, '/n');
    cout << "Name is " << name << endl;
    inFile.getline(address, 81, '/n');
    cout << "Address is " << address << endl;
  
    return 0;
  }

When I run the code above, I get

Name is John Smith
Address is 

file.txt contains the following lines:

John Smith
101 Main Street
Bilbo Baggins
55 Hobbiton Road
//and so on 

It seems like it's never going to the next line. What can I do about this?

occur this result,because in the file.txt,you use the spaces between John smith and 101 Main Street instead of the newline.

[long double main]

This:
inFile.getline(name, 31, '/n');

The newline character is '\n', not '/n'.
Maybe that's why it's acting weird for you.
