[DoomCarnage]

Did i made a mistake again? Look bottom of my code for my specific question which is bolded in the comments Thanks...

class Employee
{
protected:
	char EmployeeID[7] , Name[21] , EmployeeType , Department[7],TelephoneNumber[8];
	int	count ;
public :
	//Constructor & Destructor 
	Employee(char *EID = " ",char *Namep = " " ,char EType = '@',char *D = " ",char *TelNo = " ",int C = 0) ;
	//****************************
	//Assessor method
	friend ifstream& operator >>(ifstream& , Employee&) ;
	char *Get_EmployeeID(){return EmployeeID ; };
	char *Get_Name(){return Name ;} ;
	char *Get_Department(){return Department ;} ;
	char *Get_TelephoneNumber(){return TelephoneNumber ;} ;
	int Get_count(){return count ;} ;
	char Get_EmployeeType(){return EmployeeType ;} ;
	void Display() ;
} ;

Employee:: Employee(char* EID ,char *Namep,char EType,char* D ,char *TelNo ,int C) 
{
	
	ifstream in ;
	in.open("EMPLOYEE.dat",ios::in) ;
	if (in.fail()) 
	{
		cerr <<"The Employee file cannot be found" ;
		system("pause") ;
		exit(1)  ;
	}		
	if(strcmp(EID," ") == 0 || (strcmp(Namep," ")==0) || EType == '@',strcmp(D," ") == 0 || strcmp(TelNo," ") == 0 || C == 0)
	{
		in.get(Department,7);
		in >> count ;
		in.ignore(20,'\n') ;
		in.get(EmployeeID,7) ;
		in.get(Name,21) ;
		in.get(TelephoneNumber,8),
		in >> EmployeeType ;
		in.ignore(20,'\n') ; 
	}
	
}



ifstream& operator >> (ifstream& infile , Employee& E) 
{
	infile.get(E.EmployeeID,7) ;
	infile.get(E.Name,21) ;
	infile.get(E.TelephoneNumber,8) ;
	infile >> E.EmployeeType ;
	infile.ignore(20,'\n') ;
	return infile ;
}

void Employee::Display()
{
	cout <<setiosflags(ios::left|ios::fixed) ;
	cout <<endl ;
	cout << setw(14) << EmployeeID << setw(21) << Name<< setw(15)  ;
	cout <<TelephoneNumber <<EmployeeType <<endl  ;
}

int count = 0 ;
	const int Size = 4 ;// max number of employee 
	Employee *Staff[Size] ;
	ifstream infile ;
	infile.open("EMPLOYEE.dat",ios::in) ;
	if(infile.fail())
	{
		cerr << " The Employee file does not exist " ;
		system("pause") ;
		exit(1) ;
	}

	infile.ignore(20,'\n') ;
	while(!infile.eof())
	{
		Employee *Employeep = new Employee  ;
		infile >> *Employeep ;
		Staff[count] = Employeep ;
		Staff[count]->Get_EmployeeID() ; //This part it does not work,as in there is no output.On the other hand, Staff[count]->Display() works,
//Please explain to me my mistakes... Thanks
		system("pause") ;
		count++ ;
	} 	

	infile.close() ;

Bumpz Anyone?

[firedraco]

Get_EmployeeID() doesn't print anything.

[DoomCarnage]

Can u elaborate? I thought i have the function to return the employee ID?

[Albatross]

Get_EmployeeID() doesn't print anything. It returns the employee ID, but nothing is done with it. Nothing. It's just discarded because it's not read into anything: not cout, not an ofstream, it's just discarded. You may want a variable to store the data in so that you may do something with it later.

[DoomCarnage]

I don't get quite what you are saying
you are saying that the value of EmployeeID is being discarded after it comes out of the function.
Thus
Staff[count]->Get_EmployeeID()
has no value.
If so should i store the value as

char*temp  ;
strcpy(temp,Staff[0]->Get_Name())

[Albatross]

Oh, it has a value, but it is discarded. Those are two different things.

Your general idea for storing it is right, though.

Why not use strings?

-Albatross

[Kangaroux]

Staff[count]->Get_EmployeeID()

What Albatross is saying is that you're calling the function but not assigning it to anything.

Okay thanks people :)
