#include "<string>"; - however doesnt work

PC Nerd · #1 08-Jan-2008, 21:00

Hi,

Ive included string for my program - but i get the following error when i try "string name;"

CPP / C++ / C Code:

#include <cstdio>
#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <string>

#ifndef _FLIGHT2_H
#define _FLIGHT2_H

class Flight2 {
	private:
		string name;
....

thats the beginning - and the error is on the last line showed.

12 C:\CPP\Flight2.h
'string' is used as a type, but is not defined as a type.

Im assuming that this means its not letting me user string as a data type - however ive got another program that is exactly the same and it allows me to do it. the only difference is that thsi is a .h file building aclass whereas the other prgram is simply a program wihtougth using any custom headers taht ive created.

How can I get this header file to use string as a data type?

Thanks

using std::string;

(or using namespace std;)
