ofstream help needed

[ern]

Is there a good example of simple usage of ofstream ?

Also, I need to create a FOLDER before I create a file to write to. Is
this possible ? If so, how ?

ok... just found out ofstream isn't part of the C languange, but it
would still help if someone has advice using ofstream (or a C
alternative).

Try comp.lang.c++; I've heard people say it were down to
the hall and to the left. ofstream certainly does not belong
to standard _C_ as discussed here.

Directories are not part of standard C.
You can wrap potential ugliness such as making a call via
system() away in a portability module.

If you want to work with "files" in C, you use <stdio.h>;
-> FILE, fopen(), fclose(), and, depending on your use,
either fread()/fwrite() or fgets()/fputs() or getc/putc or
fscanf()(not really)/fprintf().
