Program won't compile on my computer but will on others

[solitudetree]

I have a program that is giving me getline errors on certain lines but not all. It also is giving me one or two other errors as well. I have posted my code and others can copy/paste it to work with no problem. I still can't get it to run. I'm using Visual Studio 2017. Anyone have any ideas???

Without seeing the code or the errors, there's not much I can say.

Maybe this has nothing to do with it, but anyway !
Make sure your computer is ready for Visual Studio

Here is my code.

#include <iostream>

#include <string.h>

using namespace std;

int index = 0; //variable to hold how many custers are entered

struct Address //Structure for the address.

{

string street;

string city;

string state;

string zipcode;

};

struct Customer //Stucture for the Customer

{

string firstNm, lastNm;

Address busAddr, homeAddr;

};

//Functions

int displayMenu();

Customer getCustomer();

void showCustomer(Customer);

void allCustomers(Customer[]);

Address getAddress();

void findCust(Customer[], int);

int main()

{

Customer cust[100];

while (true)

{

int choice = displayMenu();

switch (choice)

{

case 1:

cust[index] = getCustomer();

index++;

break;

case 2:

allCustomers(cust);

break;

case 3:

findCust(cust, index);

break;

case 4:

cout << "Exit program!!" << endl;

return 0;

break;

default:

cout << "Invald selection!!" << endl;

}

cout << endl;

}

return 0;

}

int displayMenu()

{

//Display menu.

cout << "1. Enter new customer. " << endl;

cout << "2. Display all customers. " << endl;

cout << "3. Display a particular customer. " << endl;

cout << "4. Exit the program. " << endl;

int choice; // User selects the option they want.

cin >> choice;

cin.ignore();

cout << endl;

return choice; //Return choice displayed.

}

Address getAddress() { // User enters requested information.

Address a;

cout << "Enter Street: ";

getline(cin, a.street);

getline(cin, a.city);

}

}

return;

This has nothing to do with Visual Studio.
You miss an include directive for <string>

I ran the program,
for me the result is clear and i get ;

1. Enter new customer.
2. Display all customers.
3. Display a particular customer.
4. Exit the program.
Enter choice:

[TRONCODE]

If i pursue the program some logical sequences are missing but the program so far is running
So i followed the test and i 'm getting this for the 1st choice;

1. Enter new customer.
2. Display all customers.
3. Display a particular customer.
4. Exit the program.
Enter choice: 1

Enter First Name: bob
Enter Last Name: the ET
Enter Business Address:
Enter Street: deep valley moon
Enter City: saturn's ring
Enter State: Saturn
Enter Zip Code: n/a

Enter Home Address:
Enter Street: crater 223
Enter City:

The program doesn't let me place Business Address neither Home address

So putting aside the missing logics of the program to fullfil the requirement, over my place i get 1 wrong message at
" Customer cust[100]; " ! (int) !

Hello Glekker
dev-cpp is good for small program and isn't supported anymore
If anything better would be " ECLIPSE " with " gcc ( MinGW)-compiler "

dev-cpp is good for small program and isn't supported anymore
Of course it is: https://sourceforge.net/projects/orwelldevcpp/
I guess you refer to the old Bloodshed Dev-Cpp.
