- Hello,
-
- I'd like to store a "filepointer position" to be able to find the same
- writing position in a subsequent run. (I am doing some simulation
- writing lots of numbers out. Saving the state of some internal vars with
- the filepointers would make me able to restart the program from that
- information and file position, if needed).
- I hope that I can do this with the tellp and seekp methods of ofstream.
- Tha draft (april 95) is not making a firm statement, that this should be
- possible between subsequent runs. (After all there are other stream
- types that loose they validity when the program finishes.)
- I haven't checked out the latest draft, is there a clarification about
- this?
- Or is there another proposed way to accomplish the explained task
- remaining within the standard?
- I'd like to thank you in advance for any comments upon this.
- Axel Thimm.
