The serialization library only reads what it wrote. So I would never expect to read the eof. And this is for a very good reason. It permits serialized data to be embedded inside of other data.

Hi,
I have checked some more on this and it seems there is one more character remaining after three objects has been read (0xa) and that is why eof() is not returning true. Can someone please let me know if they come across this problem or tell me what I am doing incorrect here? Thanks.

Follows is updated program:

std::cout << " ++++++++++++++++ " << std::endl;
if (counter == 3) {
while (!ifs.eof()) {
std::cout << ifs.get() << std::endl;
}

break;

++counter;
