Hello, I'm trying to write a program that is supposed to be a tool of sorts for another program I'm working on, and I am storing what I want to be written to the file in strings until the program gets to the writing portion. The IDE I'm using is Dev-C++ 4.9.2-ish, with g++.exe for my C++ compiler. There are several errors that are being shown between lines 49 and 58. The error on 49 is "no match for 'operator<<' in 'fichier << i_path' ", on 50" invalid operands of types `std:fstream ()(std::string)' and `int' to binary `operator<<' ", 51 "no match for 'operator<<' in 'fichier << keyword' ", 52 "no match for 'operator<<' in 'fichier << question' ", 55 "no match for 'operator<<' in 'fichier << choice[counter]' ", and with 58 " invalid operands of types `std:fstream ()(std::string)' and `int' to binary `operator<<' ". If someone can explain what these errors mean and/or how I can resolve them, please reply. Below is the program's code.
Warning! This is code! (Bad MythBusters spoof, all well...):
Code:
#include <iostream>
#include <sstream>
#include <string>
#include <fstream>

getline (cin, i_path, '\n');
