I was trying to run a pathfinding example that I found http://www.policyalmanac.org/games/aStarTutorial.htm the famous A* algorithm but when I run the sample code they provide in that website it gives me a ""fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'fstream.h': No such file or directory"".

I have looked over the internet when realized that apparently the problem is a matter of visual studio versions. But I cannot find an answer to this problem, I just want to run this sample and need to know what changes need to be done in order to make it work.

Thanks in advance. Any help will be appreciate it.

This may sound a little stupid, but try getting rid of that ".h" in "#include <fstream.h>".

If that doesn't work, you might need to re-install MSVC9

fstream is a library i think. you dont use header. just use #include <fstream>

Hmm.. Check the MSVC9 include files.

Head here:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\include

Look for a file called "fstream" (no ".h" extension), it it's not there, download the attached file, and place it there (and call it "fstream" (with no ".h").

If that doesn't work, you might have to re-install MSVC9.

I already added to the include files after your advice and put it without .t in the code, but it is still asking me for fstream.h not fstream.

Visual c++ works perfectly, this is the first time I found this issue and I am sure is not a bad installation problem.

It might just be a problem with MSVC9, just try to re-install it.
