Re: State of the Woody
Ben
Please explain what kinds of things don't compile.
You don't tell me enough for me to tell if I can be helpful, but here
is a shot in the dark. I apologize for posting this if not apropos.
My students had a hard time with namespaces. If your problem is
namespaces then names defined in headers without extensions such as
iostream that were available in the corresponding header with a .h
such as iostream.h are now placed in namespace std when you #include
<iostream> The symptom is names, such as cout for example, not
defined.
Then you have to either qualify with std::cout, for example, or in a
function that uses these, place a using namespace std; or using
std::cout; where you replace cout by any name that you want made
available.
I hope this is not off base and that it help. I look forward to a
STABLE standard compliant g++ and libC++.
