How to use this ifstream?

[hopesfall]

I have a constructor which takes in a reference variable of type ifstream. I want to be able to define a file which to get one line of text from and then use the created ifstream to read that one line in the constructor. Something like this:

int main(){
	ifstream myStream(FILENAME);
	PegBoard newGame(myStream);
}

In my constructor I want to read that one line:

PegBoard::PegBoard(ifstream & sin){
// How would I read that one line in this constructor?

}

You read into it the same way as any ifstream; >>, getline() etc. Am I misunderstanding your question?

Well, how would I do that?

Here is one way to read into an ifstream:

string str;
getline(sin, str); // gets one line from sin and puts it into str

Thanks so much. I can't believe I didn't figure that out. I feel like I tried that but I guess not. Thanks.
