You should compile your code and make sure it compiles at least so one doesn't have to chase problems like wrong naming.

I've fixed your code. See below.

C++

#include <fstream>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
    fstream newfile("input.txt", ios::out);
    if (newfile.is_open())
    {
        newfile << "The string is in the language.";
        newfile.close();
    }

    newfile.open("input.txt", ios::in);
    if (newfile.is_open())
    {
        string line;
        while (getline(newfile, line))
            cout << line;
        newfile.close();
    }
    return 0;
}

Java

import java.io.File;
import java.io.FileWriter;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.PrintWriter;
import java.util.Scanner;

public class Main
{
    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        File in = new File("input.txt");
        File out = new File("output.txt");
        
        try (Scanner scan = new Scanner(in);
            PrintWriter pw = new PrintWriter(new FileWriter(out, true)))
        {
            while (scan.hasNext ())
                pw.println(scan.next());
        }
        catch (IOException e)
        {
            e.printStackTrace();
            System.exit(0);
        }
    }
}

Yes, I had compiled, but had few errors. Now I fixed it, but still when I run the code, I don't get any results either in java or c++. My question, how should I input these strings like a =1, a= a+b-c*d in input file to determine if these strings are in language or not? Do I have to include input.txt in main file or I create separate file named input.txt?

Yes, you have to add a new file to your project and call it input.txt.

Maybe the below code helps more:

#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
#include <string>

#include "Parser.h"

#define INPUT_FILE "input.txt"

static void CreateInput(const char * path)
{
    std::fstream file(path, std::ios::out);  
    if (file.is_open())
    {
        file << "three=1+2" << std::endl;
        file << "3=1+2" << std::endl;
        file << "squarearea=side**2" << std::endl;
        file.close();
    }
}

int main(int argc, char * argv[])
{
    CreateInput(INPUT_FILE);
    
    std::fstream file(INPUT_FILE, std::ios::in);
    if (!file.is_open())
    {
        std::cout << "Failed to read input file: " << INPUT_FILE << std::endl;
        return 1;
    }
    
    Parser parser;
    char sentence[255];
    while (!file.getline(sentence, sizeof(sentence)).eof())
    {
        if (parser.CanParse(sentence))
        {
            std::cout << "Sentence \"" << sentence << "\" is part of the language." << std::endl;
        }
        else
        {
            std::cout << "Sentence \"" << sentence << "\" is not part of the language. ";
            std::cout << "Parsing stopped at offset " << parser.CurrentOffset() << " on character '" << parser.CurrentChar() << "'." << std::endl;
        }
    }

    file.close();
    return 0;
}
