Error reading last line of file and inputing into Linklist

Question

So I'm working on an assignment for my class in which I have to read in data from a file and create a doubly linked list with it. I have all the difficult stuff done, now I'm just running into the problem where my program throws a bunch of random characters and kills itself on the last line.

Here is the function that is reading in the data and inserting it into my link list. My professor wrote this, so to be frank, I don't understand it very well.

void PropogateTheList(ifstream & f, LinkList & ML)
{
  static PieCake_struct * record;
  record= new PieCake_struct;
  f>>record->id>>record->lname>>record->fname>>record->mi>>record->sex>>record->pORc;

  while(!f.eof())
  {
    ML.Insert(record);
    record = new PieCake_struct;
    f>>record->id>>record->lname>>record->fname>>record->mi>>record->sex>>record->pORc;
  }
}

Here is the data that is being propagated:

1   Abay         Harege N O C
2   Adcock       Leand R F P
3   Anderson     Logan B M P
5   Bautista     Gloria A F P

84  Boulos       Alexandre Y F C
85  Barrios      Joshua Z M C
85  Bonaventura  Nash A M P
86  Bohnsack     David B M C
87  Blume        Jeffrey C M P
90  Burgman      Megan D F C
91  Bursic       Gregory E M P
92  Calvo        Sajoni F F C
93  Cannan       Austin G M  P
94  Carballo     Nicholas H M C
99  AlbarDiaz    Matias I F P

Currently, I sort the data alphabetically based off the last name, so on about the 5th line, when it tries to print out number 99 (AlabraDiaz) it dies. If I sort the list another way, the program always messes up with whatever the last line of data is. Any help would be great!

UPDATE:

So I've tried implementing an if(!.eof()) before inserting but it unfortunately doesn't do anything. I deleted the last of data, thus making the person Carballo. This is what my function prints out:

****** The CheeseCake Survey ****** 
Id      Last Name       First Name      MI      Sex     Pie/Cake

Answer 1

Wouldn't it be better if you'd read from the stream first, then check if it's in eof state and based on that you'd insert the element? I'm writing the following code without compiler's help, here in the edit box, so apologises if I'd made any mistake. Of course the question arises or something I'd think of is what will happen if you'll try to read from your f stream in case where eof results in true. To read more about it you can check the following link: Why is iostream::eof inside a loop condition (i.e. `while (!stream.eof())`) considered wrong?

void PropogateTheList(ifstream & f, LinkList & ML)
{
    while(!f.eof())
    {
        static PieCake_struct * = new PieCake_struct;
        f>>record->id>>record->lname>>record->fname>>record->mi>>record->sex>>record->pORc;
        if(!f.eof())
            ML.Insert(record);
    }
}
