Does c++ have DataInputStream?

[eltonsky]

Hello everyone,

I am not sure if c++ have class like DataInputStream (in java)? either from STL or boost.
That would be more handy than fstream.

It's called "std::cin"^{[1, std::cin]}.

Hi Wazzak

Isn't cin stdin?

I think I can use fstream.read((char*)xx, sizeof xx) to read from a file. That should be enough. Just wonder if there's any more handy api.

Thanks anyway.
