c++ ofstream 文件不存在,std :: ofstream，在写入之前检查文件是否存在

I am implementing file saving functionality within a Qt application using C++.

I am looking for a way to check to see if the selected file already exists before writing to it, so that I can prompt a warning to the user.

I am using an std::ofstream and I am not looking for a Boost solution.

This is one of my favorite tuck-away functions I keep on hand for multiple uses.

#include

// Function: fileExists

/**

Check if a file exists

@param[in] filename - the name of the file to check

@return true if the file exists, else false

*/

bool fileExists(const std::string& filename)

{

struct stat buf;

if (stat(filename.c_str(), &buf) != -1)

{

return true;

}

return false;

}

I find this much more tasteful than trying to open a file if you have no immediate intentions of using it for I/O.
