Compiles in visual studio but not in g++

[Mitch]

Can anyone help please. For some reason this wont compile on g++
althought I use reference to ostream

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

class num
{
int m_i;
ostream m_file;
public:
num(int i, const ostream& file):m_file(file)
{
m_i = i;
cout<<"m_i"<<endl;
}
};

int main ()
{
num a(1, cout);
return 1;
}

};

Instead trying to copy the stream object, make m_file a reference.

const ostream&

It may be a bit hard to do anything useful with a const ostream reference,
I suggest dropping the const.
