Error when compiling with Cygwin

Hello,
I just made a little C++ console application:

#include "iostream"
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
cout << "Hello Mars !";
return 0;
}

But when i tryed to compile it with Cygwin.

gcc main.cpp -o main.exe

It gave me the following error:

I heard there is some new *modern* c++ language ?!

The last C++ standard version is from 2003, but except for a few
minor corrections, it's the same as C++98.

AFAIK there is only a draft, as the standardisation process is still
incomplete and new revision of the C++ standard is supposedly due this
fall.

See:
http://www.iso.org/iso/en/CatalogueD...talogueDetail?
CSNUMBER=381 10 Strange.. I found no mention about this on
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/ and this
http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg...2004/n1638.pdf outdates
the one available on the ISO site.
Could someone comment on that?

The C++ Committee worked on addressing errors in the original 1998 C++
standard (see this newsgroup's FAQ list about Defect Reports), and is
now working on a future C++ standard.

A Technical Report (TR1) was released containing fixes to Defect


I could've sworn that was called Techical *Corrigendum* 1 ... Am I

Reports. The TR was folded into a new version of the C++ standard,
dated 2003. That is now the official standard (ISO/IEC 14882:2003). It
is available for purchase from ISO (at the above addres), from
www.ansi.org, and from www.incits.org.

You are correct. I mis-spoke. The correction is TC1, folded into the
2003 version of the standard.

I think that if he used #include "iostream.h " it would work.

His mistake was to use gcc instead of g++. I have the same
system: when linked correctly, the program works fine with
"iostream". With "iostream.h ", it works fine too, but the
compiler gives a warning.

What puzzles me is that I thought it was illegal to use double
quotes to include standard headers. I'd like someone who knows
better than me to confirm.


According to what I've got handy (Stroustrup), double quotes include
from the current directory, <> grabs from the standard include directory
and should not have ".h".

Hello I have some c++ code, which has been happily developped in the linux/unix world. Everything has always been compiled with different compiler (intel, KAI, g++...) and gnu makefiles For some obscure reasons, I have to make all this work in Windows, where I have very little experience. I've installed cygwin and everything is going well using the provided g++ compiler.
