Write and Read File at the same time

I want to read and write to text file at the same time. But I have met some problem. Here is my code:

Code:

int main()
{
	string t;
	fstream f(file,ios::out|ios::in);
	f>>t; //read first line of file
	f<<"C++"<<endl; //printf C++
	f<<"Programming"<<endl; //print Programming
	f>>t; //Read file
	f.close();
	return 0;
}

My text file, for example is: hello \n afternoon \n morning
After run, my text file is no change. and t is just hello in both two cases.

I cannot understand why like that. Help me about this problem,please
thanks

You should check the file opened properly:

Code:

    fstream f(file,ios::out|ios::in);
    if (!f.good() {
		ios::iostate state = fs.rdstate();
		if (state & ios::badbit) cerr << "Bad fstream.\n";
		if (state & ios::failbit) cerr << "Fstream failed.\n";

Depends.

The first reading you do (immediately after opening the stream) may fail. If it does, all subsequent operations may fail unless the error status is cleared. You therefore need to check that EVERY operation is successful.

After writing to a file then, before reading it, it is necessary to both flush and rewind the stream. Flushing is implied by std::endl, but it doesn't hurt to do it explicitly. Rewinding may be done using something like f.seekg(0) [to rewind to the start of the file]. Note that the positioning by seekg() usually works best if the file is opened in binary mode (opening in text mode means seekg() has some implementation defined behaviours).

It is usually easier to open an output-only file, write to it, close it, reopen the same file for reading. That separates the concerns, and reduces complexity of synchronising between read and write operations - it is much easier for a programmer to confuse him/her self by interleaving reading and writing operations on the same stream .... as you have done.
