Problems with wofstream (no output)

[Neil Bird]

   Not actually sure that this is specifically libstdc++, or gcc or even just 
my understanding!

   I'm stumbling around a little bit here trying to get a feel for 
wide/Unicode functionality.  I'm pretty up on C++ in general, streaming stuff 
not so much.

   If I run the following code, I get a zero length file.  If I take out 
*both* string outputs, I get '123abc' as expected.  'Last error' is always 0, 
I get none of the debug error output.

   Am I doing something wrong/obviously stupid?  g++ 3.4.4 on Linux.


#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <errno.h>

int main()
{
     std::string jobby = "Hello \u201Cwotsit\u201D\n";
     std::wstring wjobby = L"Hello \u201Cwotsit\u201D\n";

     std::wofstream file("jobby.out");
     if (!file.good())  std::cerr << "Open error\n";

     file << 123;
     if (!file.good())  std::cerr << "Write error 1\n";

     file << "abc";
     if (!file.good())  std::cerr << "Write error 2\n";

     file << jobby.c_str() << " normal char 10 is '" << jobby[10] << "'\n";
     if (!file.good())  std::cerr << "Write error 3\n";

     file << wjobby << L" wide char 10 is '" << wjobby[10] << L"'\n";
     if (!file.good())  std::cerr << "Write error 4\n";

     file.close();
     std::cerr << "\nLast error " << errno << "\n";

     return 0;
}
