ios_base

[Andrew Borthwick]

Hi,

    I can't seem to find ios_base.  Is it implemented?  I am trying to
use the function "seekp" as specified in chapter 21.6.1 of Stroustrup.  I.e.

ofstream fout;

. . .

fout.seekp(23,ios_base::beg);  // Position for write at 23rd character of fout


    This is supposed to be defined in <ios.h>, but the header comes up not
found.

    If this isn't implemented, any suggestions as to how to get the same effect?


Thanks,
Andrew Borthwick
