Problem with using Dev-C++ Editor

AhmedSalmanJamal

Hi,

I am trying to learn the language C++ and am using the editor Dev-C++. When I write the heading #include <iostream> , the compiler tells me an error that it cannot find the file iostream in the c++ directory... I have however enter the header files in all the directories...but the problem still exists...please let me know if there is any possible solution to this...

Cheers

Salman

I have found the solution to the problem... all we need to do is go to Tools -> Compiler Options -> Directories -> Libraries and then make sure that all the directories which hold the .dll files and the header files (i.e. .h files) are added in the directories list Very Happy

I thought that I must just add this small bit of information ... if you are getting errors in your program while using the command "cout" even though you have included the header - #include <iostream> , then not to worry because the solution is simple .....

Simply write std::cout instead of cout ..... you might find that the same may apply when you are declaring a string variable .... hence instead of writing

string myVariable;

Please write -

std::string myVariable;

Very Happy

Or put this line after the #inculde lines:
