Re: Parsing lines in a file

Hi,

Thanks, I think I was misunderstood though, I want to parse the two lines and set an enum value based on what is parsed.
Would the previous technique work for this?
Kind regards
Sean.

Using spirit, how do I translate the :script and :function to their enum equivalents,  what is the best way of reading any number of these lines in any order from a file?
Any help appreciated.

Have a look at these

- This full blown example that actually parses line-by line till the end of the file https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17768152/what-is-the-correct-way-to-handle-multiple-input-command-differently-in-c/17776618#17776618 (live demo on Coliru<http://coliru.stacked-crooked.com/view?id=aeca4ca881a3b82ae26ad12a6ee7e473-acc21326bddb78ffadef615690276e19>)

I think they should be inspiritional and perhaps will help you get started.
Finally, how do I parse to the end of the line, excluding the line feed?
Like so:

     *(char_ - eol) >> (eol|eol)

Which means: parse as many non-newline characters as possible till the end of input or an actual newline.

You can combine it with a skipper, but not with `qi::space` because it would eat the newline too:

      skip(blank) [ *(char_ - eol) >> (eol|eol) ];
