Get outfile size

[Browni3141]

I am using Windows 7 and want to do something like this:

//pseudocode
if (outfile.size() > some number)
   do something
else
   do something else

Of course, size() is not a member of fstream. How do I get the size of a file?

There is actually a function to get the size of a file...

DWORD WINAPI GetFileSize(
  __in       HANDLE hFile,
  __out_opt  LPDWORD lpFileSizeHigh
);

After that you can execute your code above with no problems and do what it is you want to do...
