i have got a problem, I want to write code which reads from file, i tried ifstream type but it doesn't work on my linux. Does anyone had similar problem ? [EDIT] (I write this code in Code Composer Studio,on Code Blocks it works. i have an error that say "method 'fail' could not be resolved.) Down below my code:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream> 
using namespace std; 

int main () 
{ 
ifstream inFile ("input.txt"); 
if (inFile.fail()) 
{ 
cout << "Could Not Open File\n"; 
} 
else 
{ 
cout << "File opened succesfully\n"; 
}  
}

What do you mean "doesnt work" do you get an error? If so what is it? – Fantastic Mr Fox Jul 27 '16 at 17:59
Oh wait i see why! Your code isn't indented properly ... – Fantastic Mr Fox Jul 27 '16 at 18:00
@Ben seems your telepathy machine doesn't work either – Slava Jul 27 '16 at 18:00
please add more details to your description? I can see this code will even not compile because it is malformed. – ivan.ukr Jul 27 '16 at 18:00
@Slava I didnt purchase the package that lets mine work through the internet :( – Fantastic Mr Fox Jul 27 '16 at 18:01
If you indent your code properly you may notice a missing `}` at the end of `main()`. – Galik Jul 27 '16 at 18:02
