Hi, I'm trying to compile this little program:

#include <iostream.h>

void main()
{
cout << "Hello World!\n";
}

But I get the following errors:

sc test.cpp -cpp -Ae -Ju -ms -o+time -3 -a2 -c -I. -otest.obj
Error: C:\PROGTOOLS\DM\BIN\..\include\iostream.h(443): 'istream::getline' is
already defined
Error: C:\PROGTOOLS\DM\BIN\..\include\iostream.h(452): 'istream::get' is
already defined
Error: C:\PROGTOOLS\DM\BIN\..\include\iostream.h(468): 'istream::operator
>>' is already defined
Error: C:\PROGTOOLS\DM\BIN\..\include\iostream.h(470): 'istream::operator
>>' is already defined
Fatal Error: C:\PROGTOOLS\DM\BIN\..\include\iostream.h(518): too many errors
Lines Processed: 599  Errors: 5  Warnings: 0
Build failed

What am I doing wrong?

I'm using version 8.25 of the compiler. I used the DOS Executable options.

Thanks in advance for your help.

Season's Greetings,
Alexis.

The problem is -Ju. -Ju is for old K&R C programs, it causes char overloading in C++ to fail. -Walter

Now I changed the option to -J (chars are unsigned) and it works OK.

Thanks!
