I was wondering if you can make a mervbot plugin store files in a certain directory.
The way to output data to a textfile i use now is with Streams like:

Code: Show/Hide ofstream file("database.dat", ios::app); if (file) {    file << "blabla:" << a_string.msg  << endl;    tell(makeEcho("Database Saved..")); } else {tell(makeEcho("Error Saving Database.."));}    file.close();

This creates-edits a file in the same dir as the plugin.
But i need it to save in another directory. Like C:/MERVBot/Database instead of C:/MERVBot
Can this be done with stream´s or do i need to use another way?
If so how do you do this?

[Mine GO BOOM]

[code]ofstream file("c:\\mervbot\\database\\database.dat", ios::app);[/quote]
The double slashes is just escaping the one slash.

now i could have found out about that myself.
Ima do that. thanks.

Of course, to save relative to the MERVBot directory, you'd want to do "database\\database.dat". But I'm sure you could have found that our yourself too.

ohyeah and the directory needs to be already created.
Else it will give an error and crate a blank file in the same folder as the plugin. Thanks!
