Mixing istream and FILE*

[monarch_dodra]

Cool, I'll definitely keep that link handy. I'm thinking at this point, though, it might be easier to just write operators for streams. After all, C structs are all public anyway, so it's not like there would be access problems....

Bah, it isn't that complicated, you should at least give it a try. If you open your file in either read or write (not both, don't know why), it should work fine.

Even if in the end your objects are only structs, you'll still end up writing a bunch stream operators, as opposed to a single syncfilestream class.

PS: Just in case you didn't notice, the code on that link's page 2 works. It doesn't require more than a copy paste.
