Thread: Stuck, can't open file

Hi, I'm trying to pass filenames to a function that opens the files and reads the data in. At this stage my file pointers are just returning NULL and I can't work out what I'm doing wrong. Any tips would be very much appreciated!
Thanks in advance...

Code:

int loadData(GJCType* menu, char* menuFile, char* submenuFile)
{
   FILE *fp1 = NULL, *fp2 = NULL;  
   
   printf("menuFile filename is is %s\n", menuFile);
   printf("submenuFile filename is %s\n", submenuFile);

   printf("Attempt to load data!\n");
   
   fp1 = fopen(menuFile, "r");
   fp2 = fopen(submenuFile, "r");
   
   if (fp1 == NULL) 
   {
      fprintf(stderr, "Menu File open error\n");
   }
   else {
      printf("Menu File open success, I think!\n");      
   }
   if (fp2 != NULL) 
   {
      printf("Sub Menu File open success, I think!\n");
   }
   else { 
      fprintf(stderr, "Sub Menu File open error\n");
      return EXIT_FAILURE;
   }   
   return 1;
}

Does that mean there is nothing wrong with the code? The filenames are correct, however I am using XCode and am not sure if there is a particular place the files are meant to go... I've added them to the project and they are sitting in the same directory as the main file - is that all I am meant to do?

That indeed was the issue. XCode Help gave me no joy, but I found the answer here How can I read files in C using xCode? - MacRumors Forums

Cheers & thanks Laserlight!
