I already works with string and fstream.
The reason why I was asking on the forum is it is not robust enough
for me.
Actually, if my app crashes in a string call (in memory), I lose the
information.
Of course, I could flush the file stream as much as I can but it would
dramatically decrease the performance.
I am sure a good compromise can be found between robustness and
performance : I need to implement something in order to do this.

Before doing the things myselfs, I wanted to know if someone already
did that kind of thing (after all, file access is a very common thing
and many people require reliability)

I can see only two reasons for you program to crash, either you have a
bad implementation of the standard library (which I do not find very
likely unless you run on some very obscure platform) or your code is
bad, in which case another library will not you.
