C++ ostream and ofstream conversions

Yes, you can. That’s the point in the OO concept called subtype polymorphism. Since ofstream derives from ostream, every instance of ofstream is at the same time an instance of ostream too (conceptually). So you can use it wherever an instance of ostream is expected.
