#include<string > not working in a win32 app

10 New Member
Hello all,

I am writing a backup tool in c++ and created a project using the win32 app option.

For some reason it will not allow me to use strings even though I have included the string class, it reports the following error;

error C2065: 'string' : undeclared identifier

does anyone know why this is?, and can it be fixed and if so how?

Thanks

Have you used the std:: qualifier when referring to string. Remember that C++ standard library whatever is in the std namespace. string would be one of them.

Have you included std::string as follows:

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. using std::string;
  2. // OR
  3. using namespace std;

Hola! I am working on a program where I am including a library that came with my numerical methods textbook. The "util.h" simply includes a large number of files. I had to change the util.h slightly to adjust path names and also take into account I am working with a case-sensitive OS. My program is below. The sticky point is that adding (#include "util.h") seems to negate the (#include <string>) statement somehow. How can I get...

So here's something I've always wondered. Typically if I want to use a string I simply using namespace std::string; string myString; But when do I actually need to include <string>. What does that provide me and why, for some uses, do I not need it?

I want to start a map with keys but an empty vector<string>. Not sure what the syntax is here.
