Reading and writing from the same file

[BWiz]

Hey guys, I have this sample code which I pieced together to test a method which I will be implementing on my larger project. Anyway, the program generates 10 random numbers and stores it in a file. Then, it attempts to read from the same file. Instead of reading, however, it just gets stuck in an infinite loop. Any suggestions? Thanks.



#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void) {
srand(time());
FILE* handler = fopen("sample.txt", "w+");
int i;
for(i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
fprintf(handler, "%d\n", rand()*10);
}

while(!feof(handler)) {
int obj;
fscanf(handler, "%d", &obj);
printf("el -> %d\n", obj);
}

fclose(handler);


return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}



EDIT::

Nvm, solved it. It seems that you need to use seperate file handlers. So this code works:


#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main(void) {
srand(time());
FILE* handler = fopen("sample.txt", "w");
int i;
for(i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
fprintf(handler, "%d\n", rand()*10);
}

fclose(handler);

handler = fopen("sample.txt", "r");

while(!feof(handler)) {
int obj;
fscanf(handler, "%d", &obj);
printf("el -> %d\n", obj);
}

fclose(handler);


return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}


I would prefer using the same file handler, anybody know a way to do this? Thanks.
