How to create .h file in C

[yuzhangoscar]

Hi all:

I am a newbie, in a recent assignment, I was asked to generate a .h file in my program. May I ask how to do this? I really do not know anything about file I/O.

Thank you all

just create a file with an h extension, and don't forget to include it in the source file in which you want to use it.

Just to clear somthing up, file IO is usually:

FILE*

When you actually read in a file to the program - not creating a header file. Just so you know the difference that all.

Hi guys:

Thank you for your reply, but I think because I put my question the wrong way, it somewhat misled you.

Here it goes again:


In this assignment, I was asked to read from a text file and store whatever I read into an abstract data type (it may be a stack or queue or even mapping), and furthermore write the ADT to a .h file and save it.

What I want to know is:

Is there a function that creates a text file? Such as:

void CreateTextFile(myHeaderFile);

Thank you all

fopen opens a file. fclose closes it. If you're writing text, fprintf prints stuff to a file.

Cheers, will try it out.
