Printing a std::string

[rohan1020]

Hello...

I wrote a c++ program in which I received a std::string type variable. The initialization is as:

std::string *items = new string[count];


I am not able to get the output of the string with:

cout<< item[i];

Is there any other method to print such type of a sting?

Thanks....

hi

if you need to use cout with string you will need to include the string header

#include <string>

Thanks for the reply...

I already included the header file. I receive this error:

error C2679: binary '<<' : no operator found which takes a right-hand operand of type 'std::string' (or there is no acceptable conversion)

thanks...

What compiler are you using?

Your code:

cout<< item[i];

is wrong. The problem is at namespace. In order to solve this problem, you can write like this

std::cout<< item[i];

, or you can declare namespace at this program begin with using

std::cout;

In that case, wouldn't he just get an undeclared identifier error?
