RE: [Dev-C++] Problem with header files

[James G. <Jam...@Cl...>]

No. #include <string> is used because there is a file called string which is
part of the C++ standard. This is so that it doesn't get confused with
#include <string.h> which is part of the C standard and is contained in a
file called string.h. Try searching in your Dev-C++ directory and below for
string*.*.

Regards,

James.

If String is a file then include it by
#include"string.cpp" or the path which is where the
compiler will search the file string.
