I want to use the C++ template vector, I have used on borland C++ Builder, but Visual C++ 5.0 doesn''t like it... My question is why? I just want to define a collection of ints, so I have the following code: /*========================*/ #include ... vector vi; /*========================*/ So VC++ says "vector missing decl-specifiers" Well, thanks any help

The html just destroyed my example. Just assume [ as <
/*========================*/
#include [vector]
...
vector[int] vi;
/*========================*/

Try including "vector.h" instead of "vector"

I''ve had similar problems with Microsoft''s STL

Or try doing std::vector. (or, using namespace std; ). This is because MS actually does this part of the standard correctly. (ie better than GNU).

When I use VC++ 5.0, I have to include this line:

using namespace std;

before any STL code. I found this in the MS help section if you search for STL.

Yes, it was the "using namespace std;", thanks!
