String errors?
I've just recently tried to make a program using multiple files, mainly just in order to keep things organized. in my "Include.h" file I declare all the functions, etc., and some of these functions return type is a string and some global variables are strings. Anyways, when I compile the whole project it comes up with a whole boatload of errors mainly revolving around something with std::string. I have no idea what this means, please help.
Did you use
using namespace std; from the very beginning before your global variables?
| Yes I did that before everything else even before the #include's |
First you shouldn't be using the "using" statements in a header file, instead properly scope the items from the std::namespace, ie: std::string.
Second if you do use the using statements they must be after the #include statements, not prior to them.
Third, I really recommend that you start using the scope resolution operator:: whenever required instead of the using statements.
