If you had posted the *dump* you would have looked at it and seen that 
there is nothing between the 2 strings. So, when you read back in, the 
runtime follows the normal rules: when reading a number, it stops when 
it sees a non-digit. There are 8 consecutive digits so of course they 
are read in as *one* number. You get zero for the 2nd one, you should 
have checked for EOF.

My C++ is basic at best but I thing what you need is:

m_file_handle << val << ""
