sscanf problems

[Jerith]

Hey guys,
I am having a problem with stack corruption in my code (it tells me
that the stack around the variable 'code' is corrupted). I think I what
is happening is that in both instances of the sscanf that I am using,
'code' is being given more than it can handle. So my question is is
there some way I can replace sscanf with something that won't corrupt
the stack around 'code'?

Thanks in advance,
JC

Switch to using c++ iostreams and do stream >> code;

Look up the man-page of scanf for the right format string for short int.

Hello,


Look up the man-page of scanf for the right format string for short
int.

Some compilers will issue diagnostics for *scanf() mismatches, but of
course aren't required to do so. That functionality may require a
higher warning level.
