// cFile.h

// Interfaces to the cFile class providing an OS-independent abstraction of a file.

/*
The object is optimized towards binary reads.
The object has no multithreading locks, don't use from multiple threads!
Usage:
1, Construct a cFile instance (no-param constructor)
2, Open a file using Open(), check return value for success
3, Read / write
4, Destroy the instance

-- OR --

1, Construct a cFile instance opening the file (filename-param constructor)
2, Check if the file was opened using IsOpen()
3, Read / write
4, Destroy the instance
