[LUG] Quick C question

[Neil Williams <linux@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

How do I parse this string:

ITEMNAME="245"

into 
char string[10]
containing ITEMNAME and
int value = 245;

?

The string is read in from a file using ifstream and I can't get strcmp to 
match the " marks - when I try to:
strcmp(buffer,"ITEMNAME=\"245\"")
I don't get a match.

It is (slightly) Linux related, as I'm using g++ to try to get this 
working!!! (The final application with be cross-platform on Windows - MS-DOS 
actually - and Linux (console) so I need to stick to stdlib.h and similar 
functions.)
