    FileError function.

    Can anyone help with this? I'm trying to write a function that will output an error if a file couldn't be opened from a supplied name. I've tried passing the name of the input file, but just get errors. Here is the code for the function:

    void FileFail(ifstream InFile,char FileName[],int BufferLen)
    {
    InFile.open(FileName);
    if(InFile.fail())
    {
    cout << "There was an error in opening your file.";
    getchar();
    exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
    }
    }
