Beginner Question

noiprocs2 · 06-16-2008, 08:55 AM

I've just begun to teach myself C++ and am using the DevC++ compiler. I've been trying to discover how to build and link a data file to a C++ program (the program calc's gross tonnage of a seagoing vessel) in DevC. Their website is not helping me. Can anyone here point me in the correct direction or give me a clue as to how I can create a data file???

You create a data file with something along these lines:

Code:

#include <iostream>

...
   std::ostream astream("outfile.txt");
   astream << "This is my data" << std::endl;
