if i open a file ouput using ofstream it's openmode is set to ios::out and ios::trunc...
what I have to do, if I want to have only the ios::out flag...not the ios::trunc flag.Because, it is deleting all the previous contents.
How do i undo this flag?or, what to do, if I want to remove it, at the moment of initialization?
Jump to PostSpecify std::ios::ate as the file mode in the constructor.
Or if the file is already open, close it and reopen with std::ios::ate as the file mode.
Jump to PostAlso try ios::app.

Thanks.But I wanted to remove the flag because, i want to take the pointers at the start of the file by reopening it.None of the above solutions do it.
seekp & seekg should get the job dont.But they are not working. :(
