ofilestream and ifilestream

Output options

These wrappers provide some custom functionality for the reading and writing of files. They are based on std::ofstream and std::ifstream respectively.

It is possible to limit the access of MeteoIO by enabling the SANDBOXING compilation option.

The following configuration keys are available to control the output:

• WRITE_DIRECTORIES: If set to true, the software will create non-existing directories in the output path. If set to false, the software will only write to existing directories. Default: true
• KEEP_OLD_FILES: If set to true, the software will not overwrite existing files, but create a new file with a timestamp in the filename. Default: false

Example

WRITE_DIRECTORIES = false
KEEP_OLD_FILES = true
