hi all,

what the best (stl) way of copy input to output using ofstreams/ifstreams


Depends on what you mean by that "(stl)" constraint. If you mean Standard Template Library, then maybe:

copy(istream_iterator<unsigned char>(input), istream_iterator<unsigned char.(), ostream_iterator<unsigned char>(output, ""));

Don't you mean:
copy(
istreambuf_iterator<char>(input),
istreambuf_iterator<char>(),
ostreambuf_iterator<char>(output)
);
