Thread: The file when compiled does never show what the book has, but shows different....

...though it isn't wrong. I just dislike the idea that it could be.

Code:

#include<iostream>#include<fstream>
#include<iomanip>
#include<string>
#include<cstdlib>
using namespace std;


void outputLine(int, const string&, double);


int main() {
	ifstream inClientFile("clients.txt", ios::in);


	if (!inClientFile) {
		cerr << "File could not be opened" << endl;
		exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
	}
	cout << left << setw(10) << "Account" << setw(13)
		<< "Name" << "Balance\n" << fixed << showpoint;


	int account;
	string name;
	double balance;


	while (inClientFile >> account >> name >> balance) {
		outputLine(account, name, balance);
	}
}


void outputLine(int account, const string& name, double balance) {
	cout << left << setw(10) << account << setw(13) << name << setw(7) << setprecision(2) << right << balance << endl;


}

When debugged the program says, "File could not be opened". Is this something wrong with cblocks and visual basic?

Probably not.

It is most likely that the file is not in the current working directory.
