C++ version of isspace (Convert code to C to C++)

I am converting code from C to C++. I am currently using the C function, isspace, what is the C++ equivalent when using an ifstream? Specifically while (!isspace(lineBuffer[l]))

id is the first the number (2515, 1676, 279) and name is the set of letters after the first "space" (ABC, XYZ, FOO).

Example NewList.Txt

2515    ABC 23.5    32  -99 1875.7  1  
1676    XYZ 12.5    31  -97 530.82  2  
279  FOO 45.5    31  -96  530.8  3  

C Code

void converter::updateNewList(){
    FILE* NewList;
    char lineBuffer[100];
    char* id = 0;
    char* name = 0;

    int l = 0;
    int n;

    NewList = fopen("NewList.txt","r");
    if (NewList == NULL){
        std::cerr << "Error in reading NewList.txt\n";
        exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
    } 

    while(!feof(NewList)){
        fgets (lineBuffer , 100 , NewList); // Read line    
        l = 0;
        while (!isspace(lineBuffer[l])){
            l = l + 1;
        }

        id = new char[l];
        switch (l){
            case 1: 
                n = sprintf (id, "%c", lineBuffer[0]);

std::isspace() from #include <locale>. (Or, more fully qualified, template <typename T> bool std::isspace(T c, const std::locale& loc). Exact declaration may vary between compilers.)

I'm not aware of anything from the C89 standard lib that isn't available for C++. (It's different for C99, which was released after the current C++ standard and contains a few things-like complex-that can never make it into the C++ standard.)

Generally, just include the C header replacing the .h suffix with a c prefix (<ctype.h> becomes <cctype> and <string.h> becomes <cstring>) and remember that most of the identifiers (with the exclusion of macros) needs a std:: prefix.

Particularly, include <cctype> and std::isspace(ch) works in C++ as it works in C.
