fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'iostream.h': No such file or directory

THanks

[Moschops]

When you tried to use
#include <iostream> instead of #include <iostream.h>
did it still give you the message
'iostream.h': No such file or directory ?


None of the versions of Visual Studio you're using have iostream.h, so that definitely won't work. Just plain iostream should be fine.

[general07z]

when i use
#include<iostream>

using namespace std;


it giving me another error:

I don't know how can i fix this error

Please if u can help me to fix this error.

[Wisely Done]

Try #include <conio.h> .

I think clrscr() is deprecated, so find another way of clearing your screen.

[Moschops]

This is a much better set of errors. These errors and warnings indicate that you're trying to use a function, clrscr, that simply does not exist, and that you're using functions ( strcpy, stricmp, getch) that do exist, and it won't stop you using them, but they're really really bad choices.

This all looks like it was written over a decade ago. You should throw away whatever you learned this from and get something recent.

If you absolutely insist on clearing the screen, read this: http://www.cplusplus.com/articles/4z18T05o/

[general07z]

Thanks a lot..
i fixed the error


I hope you can help me with this one too



C++:



fstream f;
f.open("patient",ios::in|ios::out|ios::ate|ios::app|ios::binary);




ERROR:


error C2360: initialization of 'f' is skipped by 'case' label
1> c:\users\genera07z\documents\visual studio 2005\projects\ali\ali\ali.cpp(97) : see declaration of 'f'

[Moschops]

You've written your code in such a way that some of it might not be executed; one of those bits is the initialisation of f.

Let's see the code. Please, please, please use the code tags (looks like <>, over on the right).
