Ok lets try this again.

I have an object of type ofstream (or any type of output
stream, including stringstream). How do I get a copy of
everything that is sent to cout (or anyother output stream)
also sent to this stream?

Essentially I am looking for a more "graceful" way to do
this (assume outfile has been declared and opened):

cout << "Some text" << ..... ;
outfile << "Some text" << ..... ;

This works but as just about anyone can guess it can get
quite irritating for really long output lines.

Essentially I am trying to replace a printf-like function I
am using to do my error logging.

The rdbuf stuff will not work, even if I used correct
syntax.

outfile.rdbuf(cin.rdbuf())

This will have both using the same underlying buffer but
when one sync's with the data the other stream will not be
able to read the data. To make matters worse such code is
not quite thread safe.

Does any one know how to this?
...
Better question, is this even possible?

Thanks in Advance
David McKen

IBM owns a bunch of them that they are not enforcing. Presumably because=20
they feel at this time that  their business is computers and enforcing=20
software patents like "downloading compressed data" would ruin their=20
computer business.

But who knows when they might decide the software business has more money=20
making potential.

St Joe for instance was a paper company, until they got a new CEO who=20
decided they could make more money developing the property they were=20
growing trees on. Now we have an environmental nightmare where there were=20
forests. Nothing says you can't change the business you're in.

Microsoft presumably has the same conflict. They need for computers to sell=
=20
for them to sell OS's. If they dry up the consumer computer business by=20
enforcing software patents, they mess that up -- but how many software=20
patents do they own that they might make money off of from businesses who=20
are forced to use computers -- and pay and pay and pay... So, maybe we=20
better not be to quick to hope free OS's take over the market. If they do,=
=20
it certainly tips M$'s hand in the direction of software patents for money=
=20
making.

Don't worry.These patents will all run out in 40 or 80 years and then we=20
can have a computer again :)

To me, it seems that here, the compiler assumes that you've used
a function named delete(), and not the operator ::delete().

Have you tried "delete (*xIter);"? (I mean letting at least one
space between "delete" and "(*xIter)".) It seems that this should
solve the problem.

Wishes,

I am trying to setup a Push Button control that when pushed, runs a series
of commands, then calls itself to be run again.  The reason behind this is
that there is another thread that needs to process some data prior to the
second half of the function being run.  To do this I thought I could simply
send a message to my main window (put the message into the que) so that once
the other threads message has completed the button will be recalled.
However this does not seem to happen, it simply ignores my sendmesage (or so
it seems)

Code:
                case 508:
                    switch(setup)
                    {
                        case 0:
                            FindSearch=FindInBuffer("]#",2);
                            if(FindSearch==1)
                            {
                                MessageBox(NULL,"Prompt
Check","Error",MB_OK|MB_ICONEXCLAMATION);    
                            }     
                            setup=1;  
                        break;
                        case 1:
                            FindInBuffer("]#",1);
                            Command(" ",hwnd);
 
SendMessage(hwnd,WM_COMMAND,(WPARAM)NULL,(LPARAM)508); 
                        break;
                    }
                break;
End Code:

Does anyone know how to handle a situation like this?

Dear sir,

I tried the discussion list with no success. So, excuse me for coming to you. I 
do not know if I have a program error or a compiler error. Anyway, I can see no 
error on my source code so, please, have a look on it. The source code 
presented is the smallest code that I could write in order to show the problem.

The program records 4 times the sequence 9 a b c d, then close the file, open 
again and reads its contents which should be 4 times the sequence 9 a b c d. 
But it does not happen - it seems that the program reads nothing.
Then, the program records 4 times the sequence 1 2 3 4 5, then close the file, 
open again and reads its contents which should be 4 times the sequence 1 2 3 4 
5.  Perfect, the program reads the file contents as expected.

I could realize that, considering the sequence 0 to ff, the program does not 
read the bytes 9 a b c d 20. There is no problem with the other bytes. I do not 
understand why.

It follows bellow the source code to make tests. The part bellow the 
line //////////////////////////// is identical to the part above this line with 
only one difference to define the start number (1 or 9). The line is:
        ch = 9 + (i%5);         // generates 01 byte (9 to d)               
above this line
        ch = 1 + (i%5);         // generates 01 byte (1 to 5)               
bellow this line

Thank you for your help

Source code:

#include <iostream>
    using namespace std;
#include <fstream>
    using namespace std;

main()
{
    unsigned char ch;

    cout << endl;
    // open file for output
    ofstream arquivo("binary", ios::out|ios::binary);
    // copy bytes to output file
    for (int i=0; i<20; i++) {
        ch = 9 + (i%5);         // generates 01 byte (9 to d)
        arquivo << ch;          // writes 01 byte to out file

        cout.width(3);          // shows the recorded byte
        cout << hex << int(ch);
    }
    arquivo.close();            //finished, close the file.

    cout << endl;
    ch=0; ////// Wrong, it shows this number as result of cout bellow. Why?

    // open file for input
    ifstream arquivo0("binary", ios::in|ios::binary);
    // read bytes from output file
    for (int i=0; i<20; i++)
    {
        arquivo0 >> ch;         // reads 01 byte from out file

        cout.width(3);          // shows the read byte
        cout << hex << int(ch); // it seems that it did not read the byte from 
file!!!
    }
    arquivo0.close();           //finished, close the file.
///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
    cout << endl;
    // open file for output
    ofstream arquivo1("binary", ios::out|ios::binary);

        ch = 1 + (i%5);         // generates 01 byte (1 to 5)

Really? I thought they actually wanted to move this law into Europe FROM 
the US. And MS won't kill the US. Noooooo. They'll just continuously
