Question

There is a file in directory and i’m trying to read a file but i can’t. What is wrong with my code. Example is taken from http://www.cplusplus.com/forum/beginner/37208/

    #include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>
#define MAX_LEN 100
using namespace std;
string inlasning ()
{
  string text;
  string temp; // Added this line

  ifstream file;
  file.open ("D:\education\Third course\semestr 2\security\lab1.2\secret_msg.txt");

  while (!file.eof())
  {
    getline (file, temp);
    text.append (temp); // Added this line
  }


  cout << "THE FILE, FOR TESTING:\n" // For testing
       << text << "\n";

  file.close();

  return text;
}
void main ()
{
inlasning();
}

Change \ to \\ in file path. (or to /)
