I am completely new to C++ and I am now following the C++ Primer book.
I wrote a small example about strings, here is the code:
#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <cctype>
using std::cin;
using std::cout;
using std::endl;
using std::string;
int main() {
string s("Hello World");
for (auto &c : s)
c = toupper(c);
cout << s << endl;
return 0;
}
I am on Linux with GCC version 4.4.6 and I tried to compile this code with:
g++ test_strings.c -std=c++0x
but got the following errors:
test_strings.c: In function 'int main()':
test_strings.c:14: error: expected initializer before ':' token
test_strings.c:19: error: expected primary-expression before 'return'
test_strings.c:19: error: expected ')' before 'return'
I copied the program from the textbook, so I though it was a misspelling but after a check and trying searching on the web and updating my gcc the error reminds. Help will be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance.
