A problem with : #include <iostream>

[meme]

Hi,

This is my first post here :)

I got this job interview test, sent to me by email, and it involves win32api programming, which i've never done before ...

The problem :

When I'm trying to include iostream : #include <iostream> , I'm getting a lot of errors (100+).

Any ideas ?

(It's pretty urgent, any help would b appreciated... :) )

Cheers.

i guess the one you should get is <windows.h>

If you post an er... hang on, a job interview test? If you can't solve it yourself, you are not qualified to do the job.

Tnx for the replies!

chipp:
You u mean that when programming a win32api application, you shouldnt include iostream ?

Grey Wolf:
My question is very general, not specific to the test.
The interviewer sent me this test, which involves Oracle+win32api programming (im not familiar with both...), and if i've asked only this silly question, i really think it is ok...

SOLVED!


I've had another problem in my code.... all fine now.
Tnx!

not really, but i guess that windows.h is the most common library you'll use in win32 API. although, feels like i've seen a code using iostream (i don't really sure for what purpose, though i'm a newbie here :) )

Obviously, you cannot use cout and cin with Win32 API based programs, but you can use things like fstream and sstream, which require iostream to be included.

Obviously, you cannot use cout and cin with Win32 API based programs.

Unless it is a Win32 API based console app.
