1) I cannot imaging someone programming in C++ and using "FILE*s,and file

incomplete systems like embedded systems, which don't have complete standard
C++ library. Are there any real life examples for that? How frequent are
they?



That's quite right. I don't see much use in having a wrapper for FILE*.

IMHO stdio is a useful standard, and for some purposes is better than iostreams.


Of course, boost::shared_ptr can already wrap FILE* pretty easily.
