Hey Using C++, how do I check if a file exists? Do I have to catch an exception or is there a function I can call? Thanks

I usually do it like this:

#include <fstream>int fileExists(char* filename) {  ifstream file(filename);  if (!file.is_open()) {    return 0;  } else {    return 1;  }}

Thanks, I was wondering of you could do that.
