Can't create std::ofstream variable despite including <iostream>

c++, fstream, iostream

Solution

You can try this:

#include <fstream>

int main () {
  std::ofstream myfile;

  myfile.open ("example.txt");
  myfile << "Writing this to a file.\n";
  myfile.close();

  return 0;
}

Problem

I am getting an ofstream error in C++, here is my code ``` #include <iostream> int main() { std::ofstream myfile; myfile.open("example.txt"); myfile << "Writing this to a file.\n"; myfile.close(); return 0; } ``` error from Dev-C++ 10 C:\devp\main.cpp aggregate `std::ofstream OutStream' has incomplete type and cannot be defined
