Given I just updated (CD install) my installation from 8.31 to 8.32(2),
and the 'smoke' test for the STL port already worked, I'm surprised I'm
now getting the following error msg:

C:\dm\stlport>sc hello.cpp -I\dm\stlport\stlport \dm\lib\stlp45dms.lib
-D_DLL
    cout << "Hello world\n";
          ^
hello.cpp(5) : Error: undefined identifier 'cout'
    cout << "Hello world\n";
                           ^
hello.cpp(5) : Warning 6: value of expression is not used
--- errorlevel 1

C:\dm\stlport>


Also, if you do not consider a nit pick, may I suggest we change the reference 'sc' to 'dmc'?

That can happen if you use <iostream> and omit:
    using namespace std;

OK. So I believe we should change the example 'hello.cpp' file.

I changed it to have the 'std::' ahead cout and now it compiles OK. So the new hello.cpp must be:

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
    std::cout << "Hello world\n";
}

Another suggestion:

On the updated README.TXT there are instructions for the installation of the STL libraries. In particular, the text says:

"...
which will build them into \dm\stlport\lib. To install them:

        xcopy \dm\stlport\lib\*.lib \dm\lib
        xcopy \dm\stlport\lib\*.dll \dm\dll
..."

Since the \dm\dll directory is not part of the common installation, we arrive at a situation where a just compiled program which require any of the DLLs (as for example compiling the hello.cpp w/-D_DLL) not running, because the executable cannot find the DLLs.

I suggest we copy them to the \dm\bin subdir (which will be on the developer's path) so it will be possible test the applications.

Of course, should you decide to distribute the application, you should not forget to include the pertaining DLLs!

It's supposed to be \dm\bin. \dm\dll is a typo.

Darn! Slipstreaming already. =:(

Just my luck I downloaded it on 10 Jan 2003. But I've got it now. =:)
