Does anyone know how to check whether an opening of a file using fstream
was succesfull or not.
ex.

fstream file;
file.open("temp.txt", ios::out);
how do i test whether the open was successful.

Please reply by e-mail to aderen1 AT icarus DOT uic DOT edu (the server I'm using now
will be down for the next 2 days).

Thanks a lot. I know this is off the topic, but I use DJGPP and I thought
someone might know this.
