Method not writing to file

I am trying to create a method in C so I can write to a file but I am not sure why it's not working. Is there anything wrong with my code?

Thank you in advance for your help.

void writeToFile(Employee *employeeRecords, int count) {

    FILE * f = NULL;
    fopen("employeeData.txt", "w");
    if (f == NULL)
    {
        printf("Error opening file!\n");
        exit(1);
    }

    const char *text = "Employee data: \n";
    fputs(text, f);

    for(int l = 0; l < count; l++) {

        fprintf(f, "%c", employeeRecords[l].name);      
        fprintf(f, "%c", employeeRecords[l].surname);
        fprintf(f, "%d", employeeRecords[l].age);
        fprintf(f, "%lf", employeeRecords[l].salary);
    }

    fclose(f);
}
Solution

  • Try:

    f=fopen("employeeData.txt", "w");
