3.26.4 open

bool open()
bool open(const char *fname)
bool open(const std::string fname)

Create (or overwrite) a file for writing with an output oemolstream. The fname argument specifies the filename of the file to be created. The open with no argument may be used to specify that the output oemolstream should write to standard out (std::cout). This method sets the file format property of the output oemolstream based upon the extension of the given filename. Additionally, if the filename end with ``.gz'', the file is written in gzip compressed format. If the file extension isn't recognized, the file format is set to OEFormat::UNDEFINED. The filename based file format may be overridden by calling oemolostream::SetFormat explicitly with the desired file format. If the filename is only a file extension (e.g. ``.oeb.gz''), then std::cout will be opened with the format appropriate to the given extension.
