Cannot open ini file with read_ini function in boost library

Question

Follow this guide, I'm trying to read an ini file.

try {
    boost::property_tree::ptree pt;
    boost::property_tree::ini_parser::read_ini("profiles.ini", pt);
    std::cout << pt.get<std::string>("Session1.Value1") << std::endl;
}
catch(const boost::property_tree::ptree_error &e)
{
     cout << e.what() << endl;
}

But I'm get this error.

Another question, Can I read an ini file with a path with boost lib?

this probably profiles.ini is not in your working directory, or current account does not have permission to access it.

I put exe and ini file in a same folder (Debug). How can I set this folder to "working"? – Thế Hải Nguyễn Apr 22 '17 at 06:58
if you run your app using Terminal(or Cmd on Windows) you can change working directory by using `cd your_working_dir` before issue run your app command – secmask Apr 23 '17 at 03:51
