Hello!
I have a problem with a C++ program under Windows but which works fine
under Linux. The program simply reads in integers from a file (source
code below):

ifstream in_file;
int number;
in_file.open("whatever");
   while (!in_file.eof())    
      in_file >> number;

In Linux it reads all the numbers in the file no matter how EOF is
positioned: right after the last number or on the next line in
in_file. In Windows it won't read the last number unless there's an
empty line at the end of the file.
Example:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7EOF -> this works under Linux but not under Windows
1 2 3 4 5 6 7<CR>
EOF              -> this works under both OS's
I use gcc 2.96 under Linux and Borland C++ 5.5.1 under Windows. Could
anyone help me with this one, please. I would appreciate it very much.
