How can we get the logical length of a file using fstream? Like In windows, we can use the getlength() function of CFile. How to do the same with fstream?

Also, what is the logical length of a file? Is size and length same when spoken about files? -
I have ni idea what Microsoft mean by "logical length" as opposed to size.
You can get the size of a file by opening it (in binary mode), seeking (fseek) to the end of it and then getting the current file pointer position (ftell).Comment
