RE: [Dev-C++] using strings

[Ioannis V. <no...@ya...>]

string.h is the C header file. ANSI C++ header files are without .h and
more properly written:
=20
#include <iostream>
#include <iomanip>    // For setw()
#include <fstream>    // For file I/O
#include <string>
=20

=20
int main()
{=20
  using namespace std;
 =20
  string s1;
  char pause;
=20
  cin >> s1;
  cout << endl << s1 << endl;
  cout << "pause";
  cin >> pause;

}
=20
=20
return 0; is not needed in ANSI C++. If in main() you do not return any
value, 0 is automatically returned to the system.

Subject: [Dev-C++] using strings


Hello,
A seemingly simple problem has stumped me so far.  I cannot figure out
how to use simple strings in my programs.  Do I need to add the
<cstring.h> library?  If so, my compiler says it can't find it- can I
download this somewhere?  I know I can get around this problem by using
an array of chars, but I want to be able to use strings.  I am using Dev
4.01 and the mingw compiler 2.95.2-1.  A thousand thanks for any help.

When I try to compile this program, I can a 'string' undeclared (first
use this function) error.
// start
=20
#include <iostream.h>
#include <iomanip.h>    // For setw()
#include <fstream.h>    // For file I/O
#include <string.h>

using namespace std;
=20
int main()
{=20
  string s1;
  char pause;
=20
  cin >> s1;
  cout << endl << s1 << endl;
  cout << "pause";
  cin >> pause;
=20

 return 0;
}
