Unable to open file with fstream. it always seems to jump to the else statement and gives me the error message "Error: can't open input file ". I have included in the header file
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <sstream>and in the class file i have the following code and yes i do have a txt file called studentFileName.txt in the same directory.
void StudentRecord::addFile(const string& studentFileName){
ifstream infile;
infile.open ("studentFileName.txt");
if (infile.is_open()){
string line, word, StudentName, ProgramCode;
while(getline(cin, line)){
istringstream stream(line);
while (stream >> word) {
int i = 0;
if (i % 2 == 0) {
StudentName = word;
}
else {
ProgramCode = word;
}
StudentRecord::add(StudentName, ProgramCode);
}
}
infile.close();
}
else {
cout << "Error: can't open input file " << endl;
}
}Any solutions would be greatly appreciated as i am completely stumped.
Thankyou
