Greetings,
	I have a question on the correct way of doing things.
	I have a byte array that is a char[].  The problem is i do not know the
	length until runtime.  I have always done this but C++ is not suppose to
	be this way.  

	Currently I am doing the following:

	char data[blockSize];	// Is there a better way to do this....
            theFile->at(theSession->getIndex());
            int newbytesWritten = theFile->readBlock(data, blockSize);

	I know there is a better way to do this, but I cannot find it right now.
	Any suggestions?  

	Thanks
	-ian reinhart geiser
