Hello,



Am I just using getc the wrong way?


Try something like this:

ch = getc(file.getFP);

Hi, I having equal problems and it looks like you get the 
solution. so is it posible to get the full code listing from 
import  to the counting that is working?

Just as a conclusive answer for others aswell to read.

Hello,

I am trying to finish up a group project but I am running 
into a small problem. I keep getting an error about fgetc not 
being callable. The purpose of my program is to count the 
number of characters in a file. Any bit of help is 
appreciated!


Here's my code:

import std.stdio;
import std.file;
import std.string;



Since you're using the C library stdio functions, you should 
import core.stdc.stdio


ok I added that in, but now its giving me this:

 function core.stdc.stdio.getc (shared(_IO_FILE)* stream) is 
not callable using argument types (File)

You're mixing Phobos' `File` object and C's FILE stream. You're 
passing the `File` to getc which expects FILE. Also, if there's 
no specific reason, you should prefer the Phobos' file (which 
doesn't work with getc from C, as it would require obtaining the 
C stream from Phobos object, which would not be the best idea).
