fstream file("c:\\test\\test.txt",ios::ate | ios::out | ios::in )
 /* i want a function to create test if doesn't exist */

writing or update then a nonexistent file is created if possible. That means if you use ios_base:ut at all in the mode and the file doesn't exist, the program will attempt to create it.

i want a function that create directory [test] no [file.txt]

are you just trying to create a new file, or make a new folder or directory
if you just wnt to create a file you can use this, you have to iclude the header file fstream.h (#include <fsteam.h>)

Code:

{
	ofstream file;
	
	file.open("filename.txt");		//open a file
	
	file<<"your words go here\n"<<75;    //writes to a file
	
	file.close();			 //close it
}

if you want to create a directory im not sure on that one

I think he's saying he wants it to create a DIRECTORY. Called test with a file in it. Not sure how that would work.

mmmm right

Code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <stdlib.h>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
  system("mkdir c:\\test");

  ofstream file("test.txt");

  file << stuff;

  file.close;
 
  return 0;
}

thanks vicious
