Syntax

The syntax for ofstream definitions is:

f++:   
ofstream definitions
ofstream(definitions)
:=(ofstream, definitions)
n++:   
@ofstream definitions
@ofstream(definitions)
@:=(ofstream, definitions)

Note: If you are using the first syntax for variable definitions and want to have more code and/or text following on the same line then simply end the definition with ';'.

Description

The ofstream type is used for output file streams.

Note: If you need to define thousands of variables then := is faster, plus it has useful error messages for unrecognised types.
