I'm converting a little C program to Ada and can't figure out if the
following is possible using Text_IO:
The C program writes a space holding dummy header to the top of the
file, process a lot of data, writes it out, counts up the lines and
calculates statistics on the data, moves the file pointer back to the
top of the file, and overwrites the dummy header with correct data.
I am just wondering if this is possible with Text_IO. Every method I
tried moves the End of File mark right below the header when I rewrite
the correct data.
Any ideas?
