we have an application that makes us of fstream. in particular ofstream.
there is a requirement though that the output lines that are generated by our fstream not exceed a certain length.
what i'm trying to look into is if there is a method that can be overridden that gets to see the output stream just before it goes to the file. in that method then we could split the line up, or whatever is needed, to stay within the certain line length.
can someone point me at a place to read about this stuff that might help me figure this out, or does someone have an idea for me to try?
thanks much!
