Why doesn't C::B recognize #include <iostream>

[papagym]

I'm getting a red box next to #include <iostream> and a compiler error when I try to compile this simple C++ code, why?

Code Select Expand


#include <iostream>

int main ()
{
int i = 10;
float f = i;
std::cout << f;

return 0;
}

Most of the times this happens because the file has no valid ending for a c++-file and will therefore be treated as c-file or anything else.

Sorry for the delayed reply I think the code was saved as a c file.
I believe this is a fault of the way Microsoft save a file.
It would be nice if we could get Microsoft to change the default saved file type from C to C++

This has nothing to do with microsoft, but how YOU safe the file.
If you create a new project you can select c or c++ and c::b will safe the file accordingly with c or cpp extension....
