Question

I would like to know how can I write a pointer array:

short* myArray 

and a pointer

short[] myArray

to a file in C++?

Answer 1

Use the ofstream class for this. Open the file with the open() method, then iterate through the array and use the << operator to write each short to the file.

You can get the size of the array (short[] array) by doing

int arraySize = sizeof(array) / sizeof(short);

while for the pointer (short* array) you need to keep track yourself of the size of the array it points to.
