I wanted to compile C++ programs using DJGPP... after installing it, I wrote a "Hello World"-ish program to make sure that I installed it correctly and the strangest thing happened: it read iostream just fine but then proceeded to tell me that cout and endl were undifined(!!!)... I've read posts on the internet by other people with similar problems and they were always told to compile with gxx or to specify -lstdcxx... I've tried both of these things I've also looked through all the DJGPP documentation I could find... at this point im giving up and using BloodShed Dev-C++ ... but it still bothers me how it just doesn't want to work and I'm currious if anyone here has any clues as to what could be causing this problem

after your includes, before any other code, add using namespace std; It is probably a namespace problem.

hey cool, it worked... I've seen people use that namespace before but I don't know anything about it... i guess its time to do some research... thanks cup!
