Strange errors "hello world" program

[Chervil]

Most compilers will deduce the type of file depending on the extension, .c is usually considered to be C and is compiled as such. .cpp is compiled as C++

[Bourgond Aries]

I'm thinking he may be using gcc instead of g++. Will gcc deduce which compiler to use depending on file extension?

[S G H]

Code::Blocks detect your extensions:

Using .c files it will compile for C
Using .cpp files it wil compile for C++

And C does not have iostream neither std::cout.

So rename main.c to main.cpp.

[Maulus]

it is finaly working, besides using the wrong extension .c, i allso used a "empty project".

iam now using the little gear next to the run button aswell.


i thank you all very much for the help and fast reply's!!!!!!!!!!!!
