Saving info to an array, and then to a file

[dmot]

I need to save the information from hotel rooms to an array. This array then needs to be saved to a file and then accessed again. Could anyone give me any tips on how to do this?

Thats as far as I've got before I've become stuck. Some bits of code in there are experimental and others have no purpose as of yet.

Any help on sorting this out would be welcome...

Thanks

well,
there diferents to do that.
you can use fstream or
A)

#include <fstream>
//load
ifstream flu;
flu.open ("myfile.txt");
if (flu) {
          flu.getline (myString, 100, '\n'); 
            //charVector, max char, char to end->you can use '#' for example
           //to separate differents fields
 
}
else {throw error(noFlujo);}
flu.close ();
 
//save
oftream flu;
flu.open ("myfile.txt");
if (flu) {
 
}

you can use fstream (C++) or stdio (C)
A)

#include <fstream>

}
 
//B)
#include <stdio>
//load
            char bloq[10]
    FILE *canal;
    canal=fopen ("myfile.dat", "rb"); //there's diferent modes

    fclose(canal);

     canal=fopen("myfile.dat", "wb");
     fwrite(&bloq, 10, 1, canal);
 
 

i dont´t know what you mean with "saving info in an array"
