I have one .h which has the class in it and two .cpp, One being the main and the other holding the functions.
My complier is giving me theses errors

I think it has something to do with the #include header in Functions
Newprogram2.cpp
>#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include "newprogram2.h"
Functions.cpp
Some parts are missing but I just want it to complied so I can get add() to work first.
#include "newprogram2.h"
newprogram2.h
#ifndef NEWPROGRAM2_H
#define NEWPROGRAM2_H
#include<string>
using namespace std;
#endif
You have to include the proper headers for the functions you want to use.
For cin, cout and endl you need to #include <iostream>, you forgot to do that in your 2nd .cpp file
The compiler doesn't recognize strlen as a function because it is not in <string> (see http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/string/) but in <string.h> (see http://www.cplusplus.com/reference/cstring/strlen/).
I suggest you use either size() or length(), these are in <string>, both of these can be called on std::string objects.
Functions.cpp:27:16: error: âKYUUâ was not declared in this scope
This error shows because you try to access a variable you declared in another .cpp file. The .cpp file you are trying to access it in doesn't know this variable. You can fix that by moving the variable into the header file.
Functions.cpp:27:9: error: name lookup of âiâ changed for ISO âforâ scoping
This can be fixed by changing this
for(i=0;i<=KYUU;i++)
to this
for(int i=0;i<=KYUU;i++)
Functions.cpp:35:17: error: expected primary-expression before â[â token
Functions.cpp:37:14: error: expected unqualified-id before â[â token
Functions.cpp:38:14: error: expected unqualified-id before â[â token
Functions.cpp:39:14: error: expected unqualified-id before â[â token
These errors show because you try to call functions directly on a class instead of an object instantiated from that class, like this Flandre[i].getid(). You cannot do that, make an object instead and call the functions on the object.

Hi I've a program written in C++. When I compile it in Mac terminal with g++ compiler, it compiles and runs. But when I compile the same C++ program in Ubuntu terminal with g++ compiler, it Fails. I don't know why it happens.
g++ compiler version in Ubuntu is 4.7.3.
Here is my code sample
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
#define IXSIZE 400
#define IYSIZE 400
#define IZSIZE 3
void putbyte(FILE *outf, unsigned char val)
{
unsigned char buf[1];
buf[0] = val;
fwrite(buf,1,1,outf);
}
void putshort(FILE *outf, unsigned short val)
{
unsigned char buf[2];
buf[0] = (val>>8);
buf[1] = (val>>0);
fwrite(buf,2,1,outf);
}
I get following error

You need to include stdio.h for fwrite and FILE.
#include <stdio.h>
The standard allows headers to include other headers, but you cannot rely on these indirect includes. You need to explicitly include every header you intend to use.
From http://cppcms.com/wikipp/en/page/cppcms_1x_forms,
According to this,
A declaration introduces one or more names into a program.....
Therefore, classes, structures, enumerated types, and other
user-defined types can be declared for each compilation unit
AFAIK, constructor should be in myapp.cpp, while declaration should be in content.h. So I put
There are 5 fields on the form. In CppCMS, the form built using 3 codes (the 4th codes are restriction for the fields)
1st codes:
name.message("Your Name");
sex.message("Sex");
marital.message("Marital Status");
age.message("Your Age");
submit.value("Send");
2nd codes:
add(name);
add(sex);
add(marital);
add(age);
add(submit);
3rd codes:
sex.add("Male","male");
sex.add("Female","female");
marital.add("Single","single");
marital.add("Married","married");
marital.add("Divorced","divorced");
4th codes, are restriction for the fields:
name.non_empty();
age.range(0,120);
I'm quite confused which one should be declaration
------------------added
I've tried add all above codes in myapp.cpp like below:
class myapp : public cppcms::application {
public:
myapp(cppcms::service &srv) : cppcms::application(srv)
{
dispatcher().assign("",&myapp::info_form,this);
mapper().assign("");
}
void info_form()
{
name.message("Your Name");
sex.message("Sex");
marital.message("Marital Status");
age.message("Your Age");
submit.value("Send");
add(name);
add(sex);
add(marital);
add(age);
add(submit);
sex.add("Male","male");
sex.add("Female","female");
marital.add("Single","single");
marital.add("Married","married");
marital.add("Divorced","divorced");
name.non_empty();
age.range(0,120);
}
};
But it still giving error:
myapp.cpp: In member function ‘void myapp::info_form()’:

I am getting the following error for STL files on GCC 4.1.2. And the same code works properly without any compilation errors on GCC 3.4.6.
I am including some built-in headers in my code that in turn include these STL files. Hence, I cannot modify the header files.
I compile it using the following:
gcc -I/grid/0/gs/java/jdk64/current/include -I/grid/0/gs/java/jdk64/current/include/linux -I/grid/0/tmp/direct/include/ydmg/ ydmg.cpp -I/grid/0/tmp/direct/include/ -o libydmg.so
Do I need to include some other parameter while compiling?
Could the compiler version be the cause of this problem?

Any help would be appreciated.
Here is the C++ code.
I am calling the methods from ydmg and yut libraries using JNI.
This code is working perfectly fine on gcc 3.4.6. Its gives errors on gcc 4.1.2.
#include <stdio.h>
#include "ydmg/bd.h"
#include <jni.h>
#include "yut/string.h"
extern "C" int getAge();
JNIEXPORT jint JNICALL Java_ydmgBd_getAge(JNIEnv *, jobject)
{
ydmgBd bdObject;
yutString s = bdObject.getKeys();
printf("\ngetKeys() returns the key as : %s",s.c_str());
yutHash user;
yutString value = "abc";
yutString key ="login";
user.set(key,value);
ydmgBd bd1(user);
bool val = bd1.save(user);
if(val){
printf("\ntrue");
}else {
printf("\nfalse");
}
int age = bd1.getAge();
printf("\nAge : %d ",age);
printf("\nhi");
return 1;
}
int main(){
return 0;
}
If you compile cpp code with gcc and not with g++, you must link with -lstdc++, so that option is definitely missing.
However, the problem already occurs at the parsing step, so my suggestion is to check the namespaces... e.g. have a look at the error output:
...
ytl::std::operator!=
...
std should not be in your personal ytl namespace. You are doing something wrong with your includes.
One of your header files is almost certainly including:
#include <vector>
Before that line, add:
#undef max
And I believe your compiles will start working. This is happening b/c you are also using the C std library, which for some functions uses macros, and in this case, causes the preprocessor to freak out. I've seen this same error on Linux, and undefining that symbol was all i needed to get things compiling again.
I have included #include </usr/include/c++/4.4.3/tr1/shared_ptr.h> in my class file,
When I attempt to compile my class I get below error:

Do anyone knows what exactly could be causing this errors been thrown?
I have added #include <tr1/memory> and has sorted the issue.
As of GCC 4.3, you should use:

Compiled with: g++ -c -I /usr/local/mysql/include/mysql/ test.cpp, where /usr/local/mysql is the mysql install directory.Then the compiler report the following errors:

I think that there's some name conflict between my_global.h and algorithm, so I wrap my_global.h in a namespace:
// File test.cpp
namespace MYSQL_NAMESPACE {
#include <my_global.h>
}
#include <algorithm>
int main()
{
return 0;
}
But it doesn't help, the compiler still report the same errors. Then I change the include order as following:
// File test.cpp
#include <algorithm>
#include <my_global.h>
int main()
{
return 0;
}
Every thing goes well now.
Does Anybody Really Know What The Problem It Is?
TKS!
It seems that the mysql header defines a macro min.
#if !defined(max)
#define max(a, b) ((a) > (b) ? (a) : (b))
#define min(a, b) ((a) < (b) ? (a) : (b))
#endif
This has been reported to MySQL as bug 28184. The bug is marked as closed, so try updating to the newest version. According to the bug page it should be fixed in version 5.1.23, version 6.0.4 and newer versions.
Apparently the namespace trick does not work because min/max are macros and the preprocessor does not look at namespace scope.
This might fix the problem:
#include <my_global.h>
#undef min
#undef max
#include <algorithm>
The whole thing looks horrible though :)
It looks like my_global.h defines some name used by algorithm as a preprocessor macro, causing compilation to fail. With the ordering that works, you won't be able to use whatever it is that my_global.h clobbers, but your code will at least compile unless you need that feature. Since preprocessor macros are not namespaced, the namespace wrapping will not help, as you have observed.
Therefore, it sounds like my_global.h is broken, but if everything works just use the include order that works and go with it. That's my preferred include order anyway - standard library headers first, followed by external library headers, followed by internal headers.
