    File Handling in C++

    Uploaded by

    suresh.anandm
    This document discusses file handling in C++. It covers opening and closing files using ifstream and ofstream objects. It also covers reading from and writing to files, different file opening modes, using file pointers and manipulators like seekp() and seekg() to move the file pointer position. The last section shows an example of reading and writing a structure to a binary file.

    File Handling in C++

    ios
    (facilities to io classes)

    istream stream buf ostream


    declares provides interface to declares put() and
    get(),getline() and physical devices write()
    read()

    iostream
    (contanis all I o
    functions )

    ifstream fstream ofstream


    filebuf

    fstreambase
    Opening and closing a file
    • Syntax
    ofstream outfile(“filename”); //output
    outfile is an object . Opens a file(filename)
    attaches to ostream.

    istream infile(“filename”); //input


    infile is an object . Opens a file(filename)
    attaches to istream.
    #include<iostream>
    #include<fstream>
    using namespace std;
    void main()
    {
    char name[20],address[40];
    ofstream out("Test.txt");
    cout<<"enter name";
    cin>>name;
    out<<name<<'\n'; // to file
    cout<<"enter address";
    cin>>address;
    out<<address<<'\n'; // to file
    out.close();

    ifstream in("Test.txt");
    in>>name; //from file
    in>>address; //from file
    cout<<"Name :"<<name;
    cout<<"Address :"<<address;
    in.close();
    }
    Opening and closing a file
    • Syntax
    ofstream outfile;
    outfile.open(“filename”); //output
    outfile is an object . Opens a file(filename) attaches to
    ostream.
    istream infile;
    infile.close(); //input
    infile is an object . Opens a file(filename) attaches to
    istream.
    #include<iostream>
    #include<fstream>
    using namespace std;

    Void main()
    {
    Char name[20],address[40];
    Ofstream out;
    Out.open(“Test.txt”);
    Cout<<“enter name”;
    Cin>> name;
    Out<<name; // to file
    Cout<<“enter address”
    Cin>>address;
    Out<<address; // to file
    Out.close();

    Ifstream in;
    In.open(“Test.txt”);
    In>>name; //from file
    In>>address; //from file
    Cout<<“Name :”<<name;
    Cout<<“Address :”<<address;
    In.close();
    }
    Reading file
    #include<iostream>
    #include<fstream>
    using namespace std;
    void main()
    {
    char c ;//array[100];
    ifstream in;
    in.open("file2.cpp");
    while(in)
    {
    c=in.get(); // in.getline(array,100);
    cout<<c; // cout<<array;
    }

    in.close();
    }
    #include<iostream>
    #include<fstream>
    using namespace std;
    void main()
    {
    char c ;
    ifstream in;
    in.open("file3.cpp");
    for(int i=0;i<300;i++)
    {
    if(in.eof()!=0) // returns non zero if eof condition in encountered
    {}
    else
    {
    c=in.get();
    cout<<c;
    }
    }
    in.close();
    }
    File opening modes
    Syntax : stream-object.open9”file name”,mode);
    Modes are:
    ios::app – append to end of file
    ios::ate – go to end of file on opening
    ios::binary – binary file
    ios:: in – open file only to read
    ios::nocreate – open fails if file is not exists
    ios::noreplace – open fails if file already exists
    ios::out – open file for writing
    ios::trunc – delete contents of file
    File opening modes
    Example:
    ofstream myfile;
    myfile.open ("example.bin", ios::out | ios::app |
    ios::binary);
    File pointer and manipulaters
    • seekg() – moves input pointer to spec location
    • seekp() – moves output pointer to spec
    location
    • tellg() – gives current pos of i/p pointer
    • tellp() – gives current pos of o/p pointer
    // obtaining file size
    #include <iostream>
    #include <fstream>
    using namespace std;

    int main ()
    {
    long begin,end;
    ifstream myfile ("file4.cpp");
    begin = myfile.tellg();
    myfile.seekg (0, ios::end);
    end = myfile.tellg();
    myfile.close();
    cout<<“starting offset"<<begin;
    cout<<“Ending offset"<<end;
    cout << “size is: " << (end-begin) << " bytes.\n";
    return 0;
    }
    void main()
    #include <iostream>
    { inventory a[3];
    #include<fstream>
    fstream f;
    #include<iomanip>
    f.open("stock.txt",ios::in|ios::out);
    using namespace std;
    cout<<"enter details";
    class inventory
    for(int i=0;i<3;i++)
    {
    {
    char name[10]; int code; float cost;
    public:
    a[i].readdata();
    void readdata() f.write((char *)&a[i],sizeof(a[i]));
    { cout<<"entername";cin>>name; }
    cout<<"enter code";cin>>code; f.seekg(0);
    cout<<"enter cost";cin>>cost; } cout<<"output";
    void writedata() for(int i=0;i<3;i++)
    { cout<<setiosflags(ios::left)<<setw(10) {
    <<name f.read((char*)&a[i],sizeof(a[i]));
    <<setiosflags(ios::left)<<setw(10) cout<<"\n";
    <<code a[i].writedata();
