    Close the existing file (or stream). It is then possible to open it again.

    If you want to open the file from two sections of code simultaneously (for example, two programs running at the same time, and both opening and reading the same file), then you usually need to use extensions specific to your operating system. Generally speaking, C and C++ standard libraries assume such sharing is not needed, although you can get lucky in some cases with some libraries (eg when both open streams are for read-only access).

    That means no general code solution is possible. You need to read documentation for your operating system, compiler, and library and determine what extensions they support.

    Right 98% of the time, and don't care about the other 3%.

    If I seem grumpy or unhelpful in reply to you, or tell you you need to demonstrate more effort before you can expect help, it is likely you deserve it. Suck it up, Buttercup, and read this, this, and this before posting again.
