convert file descriptor to FILE pointer or file stream on windows

[vermarajeev]

Hi,
Short question..

Is there any way I can convert a file descriptor to either a FILE* or a C++ stream ifstream on windows.

HANDLE hFile;
hFile = CreateFile(filename, // open One.txt
	GENERIC_READ, // open for reading
	0, // do not share
	NULL, // no security
	OPEN_EXISTING, // existing file only
	FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, // normal file
	NULL); // no attr. template
 
int fd = (int)hFile;
FILE* pFile = fd; ///how to convert fd to FILE*  ?????????
or
ifstream ifs = fd;///how to convert fd to ifstream ???????????????

HANDLE hFile;
hFile = CreateFile(filename, // open One.txt
	GENERIC_READ, // open for reading
	0, // do not share
	NULL, // no security
	OPEN_EXISTING, // existing file only
	FILE_ATTRIBUTE_NORMAL, // normal file
	NULL); // no attr. template

int fd = (int)hFile;
FILE* pFile = fd; ///how to convert fd to FILE*  ?????????
or
ifstream ifs = fd;///how to convert fd to ifstream ???????????????
