Is there any hand coded class or VC++ plugin available that is same as PHP's SplFileObject
?
Please see the question https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10650864/fetching-nth-line-of-a-file/10650864#10650864. I want to achieve this using C++
Not sure why you want to use it for, what about iostreams or boost::filesystem?

Update (adding a code example after reading the comments):
Something like this then?
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
auto fd = std::fstream("veryLargeFile.txt");
if (fd.good()) {
std::string buffer;
fd.seekg(200000);
std::getline(fd, buffer);
std::cout << buffer << std::endl;
}
fd.close();
return 0;
}
