Re: #include <fstream> using Dev C++// how to specify a file locatio

there are two ways:

1. give out_stream the absolute pathname;

    out_stream.open("c:\Do***ents and Settings\username\My
Do***ents\outfile.dat");

2. give out_stream the relative pathname;

    out_stream.open("..\outfile.dat");
      this creates the file in the directory above the directory the
program is excecuting form

im not exactly sure on the windows file nameing, but that is how it would
work in linus
