shamjs · 11-03-2011, 01:14 AM

Hi all,
i need to read a Tutorb.csv file but im having some problem to open it.
this is my sample code

Code:

/*********test.h**********/
.
.
A=Utils::GetMatrix("Tutorb.csv");/*i have placed Tutorb.csv in same directory of test.h(i.e Tutorb.csv is placed in same path of test.h),so there is no misplacing of Tutorb.csv file*/
cout<<A;
cout.flush();
.
.

Code:

/******utils.h*******/
.
.
static Array2D<REAL> GetMatrix(const char* filename)
		{     
			char szLine[MAXLINE];
			char seps[]=",";


			FILE* fp=fopen(filename,"r");
			if (fp==NULL)
			{
				printf("Failed to open data file");
				return Array2D<REAL>(0,0);
			}
//here are some code that reads the file
}
.
.

please guide me where i have went wrong.
waiting for your reply.

Try this:

Code:

if (fp==NULL) {
    fprintf (stderr, "*** Failed to open data file '%s': errno=%d %s\n",
             filename, errno, strerror (errno));
}

Don't forget to include errno.h

i have included those lines
i got the error saying

*******failed to open data file 'Tutorb.csv':errno=2 no such file or directory

but i have placed that file in proper path

> but i have placed that file in proper path

Then your program runs somewhere else... try this: system ("pwd");

PS: I hope by 'path' you meant 'directory'; fopen/open doesn't search PATH
