Odd Cout Behavior - c++

Question

I'm sorry for the initial post. This is tested and reproducible.
I'm trying to get cout to work within a fstream while loop while detecting each character its parsing, but it's exhibiting an odd behavior with the Text getting overrided by the first variable that I'm trying to put into cout.
main.cxx
#include <string.h>
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
using std::string;
using std::fstream;
using std::noskipws;
using std::cout;
int main(int argc, const char *argv[]){
char pipe;
string word; // stores the word of characters it's working on at the moment
string filename = "Directory.dat";
int type = 0; // 2 types counter, starts at 0
int newindicator = 0; // for detecting a new * for the data set
fstream fin(filename.c_str(), fstream::in);
while(fin >> noskipws >> pipe){
if(pipe == '*'){ // if the character is an asterisk
type++;
newindicator = 0;
word.clear();
}else if (pipe == '\n'){ // if the character is next line
if(newindicator == 0){ // tells the reader to know that it just finished reading a *, so it doesn't print anything.
newindicator = 1;
}else {
if(type == 1){
cout << "new word as: ";
cout << word << "\n";
}else if (type == 2){
cout << "new word as: ";
cout << word << "\n";
}
word.clear(); // clears the word string as it's reading the next line.
}
}else{
word+=pipe;
}
}
return 0;
}
Directory.dat
*
Chan
Johnathan
Joespeh
*
Betty
Lady Gaga
Output
Chanword as:
new word as: Johnathan
new word as: Joespeh
Bettyord as:
new word as: Lady Gaga
Note that how "Chan" is overriding the characters "new " on the first line, but it's fine after that. This seems to happen on every new type I'm doing, and when its recalling a new set of type. Same with Betty on the next set, which overrides "new w" with "Betty" on that cout.
Any feedback would be much appreciated. Thank you!

Answer 1

I suspect your input file has Windows line endings. These contain the carriage return character that's handled differently on Unix.

Thank you all for the comments and feedback. Made the changes as suggested:
Corrected
#include <string.h>
#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
using std::string;
using std::fstream;
using std::noskipws;
using std::cout;
int main(int argc, const char *argv[]){
char pipe;
string word; // stores the word of characters it's working on at the moment
string filename = "Directory.dat";
int type = 0; // 2 types counter, starts at 0
int newindicator = 0; // for detecting a new * for the data set
fstream fin(filename.c_str(), fstream::in);
while(fin >> noskipws >> pipe){
if(pipe == '*'){ // if the character is an asterisk
type++;
newindicator = 0;
word.clear();
}else if (pipe == '\n'){ // if the character is next line
if(newindicator == 0){ // tells the reader to know that it just finished reading a *, so it doesn't print anything.
newindicator = 1;
}else {
if(type == 1){
cout << "new word as: ";
cout << word << "\n";
}else if (type == 2){
cout << "new word as: ";
cout << word << "\n";
}
word.clear(); // clears the word string as it's reading the next line.
}
}else{
if (pipe != '\r'){
word+=pipe;
}
}
}
return 0;
}
Output
new word as: Chan
new word as: Johnathan
new word as: Joespeh
new word as: Betty
new word as: Lady Gaga
