[Dev-C++] DevC++ & XP

[School <bh...@mo...>]

Help.

Starting Tuesday, I'm teaching an introductory course in C++.  I recently
upgraded to WinXP Pro and now I can't compile code.

The error message is "iostream.h: No such file or directory."

I have set the Directories in the Compiler Options and Project Options to
the correct locations.  I've completed the updates with Microsoft.

What else can I try?

Most common mistake, and yet quite hard to track is that mingw MUST be
in directory path WITHOUT spaces in name... although DevC++ works fine
within any directory, main compiler system often have troubles with
it... also check how exactly line for compiles looks like... maybe it
will give you some clues...

Unfortunately you have lot to learn before you teach C++... A good book =
that
I suggest for everyone who has some basic knowledge of C++, is  "The C++
Programming Language" 3rd Edition or Special Edition by Bjarne =
Stroustrup
(the creator of C++).

You need to add this:

It seems that the compiler always mentions this statement:

>> F:/Dev-Cpp/include/c++/iosfwd:44:28: bits/c++config.h: No such file or 
>> directory

Have you tried to include this in your Tools->Compiler Options- 
>Directories->C++ Includes tab
      F: \Dev-Cpp\include\c++\mingw32

..it is where the bits/c++config.h resides :)

Hope this helps

Not to mention the deprecated <iostream.h>  You'll want to use <iostream>
as that's the standard now.
