That's just a typo in the docs -- it should be ->toString() instead.  (I've 
just fixed it in the docs as well.)

It's not really possible to say just from what you typed what exactly the 
problem is.  But it is correct that you cannot continue to use structures 
that are part of the file once the file has passed out of scope...

gdb and valgrind usually provide lots of useful information.
