Read input file

[lmd141]

Hi there,

I'm currently trying to write a piece of code that reads input from a .txt file. Here is the code:

void readconffile()
	{

            string dummystring;
            string s;

            ifstream Dfile;
            std::stringstream out;

            out << 1;
            s = out.str() + ".TXT";
            Dfile.open (s.c_str());
			
	    if (Dfile.fail())
            {
                return;
            }
            Dfile >> mass >> dummyint;
	    cout << mass;
            Dfile >> sigma_ethane >> dummyint;
            cout << sigma_ethane;

	    Dfile.close();}

Here is the text file:

30.07 !MASS
3.825 !SIGMA

However, the problem is that when I output "sigma_ethane" to screen, it simply comes up with 0, while mass works perfectly. Any ideas why this is?

Cheers

!MASS is not an int that can be stored in dummyint?
