I'm trying to write a function that loads data from a file into a templated class object. This is tricky because the fucntion has to ensure that the data in the file can be read in as the data type of the object.<br><br>i.e. If the file contains:<br>1<br>22<br>333<br><br>how can I get the function to recognize that those are integers, yet still work if the file contains characters?<br><br>I'm just looking for ideas.

If you're trying to read from a file. You should have some specifications for that file. Otherwise it's a coding nightmare.<br><br>eg. if it's an import delimited by ";"<br>12;123;1234<br><br><br>You can read between the semicolons for and then convert the strings to numbers.<br><br>Brian
