I am trying to read in a previously made file from user input.
I have googled and thumbed through a couple of books and i can see whats wrong. the file is placed in the same location as if i would have made a file from the console. I get cannot open file
Code:char FileName[20];
ifstream infile;
cout << "Enter the name of the file you want to open: ";
cin >> FileName;
infile.open(FileName, ios::in);
infile >> FileName;
cout << "\file contents: " << FileName;
if(!infile) {
cout << "cannot open file";
}
