void open ( const char * filename, ios_base::openmode mode = ios_base::out );

So, you can specify how to edit the file, if you wish override of if not

outfile.open ("test.txt",ios::out);

flag value opening mode
app (append) Set the stream's position indicator to the end of the stream before each output operation.
ate (at end) Set the stream's position indicator to the end of the stream on opening.
binary (binary) Consider stream as binary rather than text.
in (input) Allow input operations on the stream.
out (output) Allow output operations on the stream.
trunc (truncate) Any current content is discarded, assuming a length of zero on opening.
