[Dev-C++] (no subject)

[chea s. o. <y2k...@ya...>]

does anyone know can i use the following code?
i want to write something into a binary  file. the i
will use another to read it? can anyone tell me if i
can use the following in dev C++? i picked this
example from a book but i can write the file but can't
read from the binary file.
2 different files are as below:

//this is the write file
#include <iostream.h>
#include <fstream>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string>

using namespace std;
struct person 
{
protected :
string name;
int age ;

public:
void showdata()
{
cout<<" name: "<<name<<endl;
cout<<" Age:  "<<age<<endl;
}

void getdata()
{
cout<<"Enter name: ";getline(cin,name);
cout<<"Enter Age:  ";cin>>age;
}


};


int main()
{     
person pers;
fstream file;
file.open("per.txt",ios::app|ios::binary|ios::in|ios::out);
pers.getdata();
file.write(reinterpret_cast<char*>(&pers),sizeof(pers));

file.close();
file.seekg(0);

 


      system("PAUSE");
      return 0;
}


// this is a read file
#include <iostream.h>
#include <fstream>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string>

using namespace std;
struct person 
{
protected :
string  name;
int age ;

public:
void showdata()
{
cout<<" name: "<<name<<endl;
cout<<" Age:  "<<age<<endl;
}

void getdata()
{
cout<<"Enter name: ";getline(cin,name);
cout<<"Enter Age:  ";cin>>age;;
}

} ;

int main()
{

person pers;     
fstream file;
file.open("per.txt",ios::binary|ios::app|ios::in|ios::out);
file.seekg(0);
 
file.read(reinterpret_cast<char*>(&pers),sizeof(pers));

pers.showdata();
file.read(reinterpret_cast<char*>(&pers),sizeof(pers));


      system("PAUSE");
      return 0;
}

tell me that u got after compile it with dev C++.

Thanks and regard,
ygod
