I'm trying to learn C++. I've gotten a copy of "Accelerated C++" and
have started to read. I got as far as the first paragraph in chapter
0 before getting stuck. The Hello World program in the book is as
follows.
// a small C++ program
#include <iostream.h>
int main()
{
std::cout << "Hello, World!" << std::endl;
return 0;
}
When I attempt to build this in Visual Studio 6, I get the following
errors.
C:\Documents and Settings\Kenneth\My Documents\cpp\1
\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.cpp(7) : error C2653: 'std' : is not a class
or namespace name
C:\Documents and Settings\Kenneth\My Documents\cpp\1
\HelloWorld\HelloWorld.cpp(7) : error C2653: 'std' : is not a class
or namespace name
If I remove the "std::" from the cout and endl, it appears to build
without complaint and runs with the expected output.
Thanks for your help.
