File I/O in C++ works very similarly to normal I/O (with a few minor added complexities). There are 3 basic file I/O classes in C++: ifstream (derived from istream), ofstream (derived from ostream), and fstream (derived from iostream). These classes do file input, output, and input/output respectively. To use the …
Hey everyone, I just upgraded this site to WordPress 2.5 and Tiga v2.3 appears to be working just fine. Thus: If you are running Tiga v2.3 already should be able to upgrade to WordPress v2.5 with no major problems. If you are running an older version of the Tiga theme, …
The ios_base class contains several state flags that are used to signal various conditions that may occur when using streams: Although these flags live in ios_base, because ios is derived from ios_base and ios takes less typing than ios_base, they are generally accessed through ios (e.g. as std::ios::failbit). ios also …
So far, all of the I/O examples you have seen have been writing to cout or reading from cin. However, there is another set of classes called the stream classes for strings that allow you to use the familiar insertions (<<) and extraction (>>) operators to work with strings. Like …
In this section, we will look at various aspects of the iostream output class (ostream). The insertion operator The insertion operator (<<) is used to put information into an output stream. C++ has predefined insertion operations for all of the built-in data types, and you’ve already seen how you can …
The iostream library is fairly complex — so we will not be able to cover it in its entirety in these tutorials. However, we will show you the most commonly used functionality. In this section, we will look at various aspects of the input class (istream). The extraction operator As …
