it seems when i try to compile this simple code I get an error message i
believe is from g++ not finding the IOSTREAM header file. i found the
header file in /usr/include/c++/3.2.2/ so that is why it is included
like that. suggestions?
I'm running red hat 9
code :
#include </usr/include/c++/3.2.2/iostream>
int main()
{
cout << endl << endl << "Jeff" << endl;
cout << "E115 Sec 010 B" << endl;
cout << "Hello World" << endl << endl << endl;
return 0;

The 'cout' object is declared in the 'std' namespace. You should
either prefix it with "std::" or declare that you're using that
name:
using std::cout;
using std::endl; // as well
Get a decent book on C++.

No, it's telling you it cannot find the declaration of
an identifier you've used ('cout').
i found the header file in /usr/include/c++/3.2.2/ so that is why it is included like that. suggestions?
Don't include it 'like that'.

This doesn't matter. C++ is a platform independent language.
code :
#include </usr/include/c++/3.2.2/iostream>
Change to:
#include <iostream>
If this does not work, then your compiler is installed
and/or configured incorrectly.
Note that from the language's perspective <iostream> is a
standard *header* name, it does *not* signify a "file" name.
Many if not most implementations do provide an actual file
with the same or a similar name to implement a standard header,
but this is an implementation detail, not specified or
required by the language. E.g. a compiler could provide the
required declarations as 'hard coded' if it wanted and would
still be conforming -- the #include statement would still be
required however).
[Gratuitous whitespace removed from code below]
int main() { cout << endl << endl << "Jeff" << endl; cout << "E115 Sec 010 B" << endl; cout << "Hello World" << endl << endl << endl;
return 0; }
errors:
project2.C: In function `int main()':
project2.C:6: `cout' undeclared (first use this function)
This is because 'cout' (and all standard library identifiers
except macros are declared in namespace 'std').
project2.C:6: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each
function it appears
#include <iostream>
int main()
{
std::cout << "Hello world\n";
return 0;
}
or
#include <iostream>
using std::cout;
int main()
{
cout << "Hello world\n";
return 0;
}
or
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
cout << "Hello world\n";
return 0;
}
(If desired, the scope of 'cout' can be further restricted
by putting the 'using' directive or declaration inside the
'main()' function.)
Note: while most implementations will work without it,
the declaration for 'endl' is provided by <ostream>.
It is allowed to be, but not required to be, provided by
<iostream>. 'endl' is also in namespace 'std'. (Its
'full name' is 'std::endl')
BTW, which C++ book(s) are you reading?

Try std::cout and std::endl or 'using namespace std;' I found this
diagnostic a bit confusing too the first time I saw it.

I don't know about the requirements of the standard about that, but imho, if
your compiler forces you to specify such a path, it is broken. Ask in a
newsgroup supporting it http://www.parashift.com/c++-faq-lit...t.html#faq-5.9
int main() {
cout << endl << endl << "Jeff" << endl;
<snip>
errors: project2.C: In function `int main()':
project2.C:6: `cout' undeclared (first use this function)
'cout' is defined in the std namespace (as all standard functions, classes
and objects are), so you must explictly refer to it :
std::cout << std::endl << "Jeff" << std::endl;
Or look up using directive and declaration.

"'cout' undeclared." Exactly the case. How much more specific
could it be? :-)
Before you say e.g. "well the compiler should 'know' it's a
'namespace std' issue, I'll say that no, it cannot (and should not)
make such an assumption. I might want an identifer of my own named
e.g. 'cout', which I have every right to define, in either a 'global',
'file', 'namespace'*, or 'local' scope, and expect no problems until I
explicitly cause a conflict with a 'using' statement which brings
'std::cout' into scope.
(*) except namespace 'std', where the 'user' is not
allowed to define anything.
OP's problem is not an 'ambiguous' error message, but insufficient
background knowledge before using the compiler.

code :
#include </usr/include/c++/3.2.2/iostream>
It's been a little while, but I seem to recall that
including a file from the "builtin" include dirs is
done via:
#include <filename>
That tells the compiler to use its own include path(s).
But including a USER file is done via:
#include "filename"
That tells the compiler to use the include paths from
the compile commandline (or defaults)(or project/etc).
Try changing the < and > to " and " and see what
happens.

Thanks for the help. the only thing that i seemed to find that worked
was to #include <iostream.h> and it gives me a depreciation message but
compiles and runs fine. is this normal for g++ 3.2.2?? it compiles fine
with #include <iostream> with g++ 2.8.1? should i just keep using the .h
extention and ignore the message?

No, you should use <iostream> -- which is the proper header -- and
correct your *code*.

I have two relative complex frameworks: one uses only iostream.h the

Is it somehow possible to put them together to one framework and solve

If I just change the header in one framework I get lots of errors,
