Weird compiling error with CodeBlocks - c++

Question

that's my first use to code block but it hasn't gone fine ,, i face a really weird problem i cant even describe it so i will just tell you what's happened. the problem is that the ide dont compile my project even if the code were correct its just open a new tab that called "iostream" and the console window appears but empty why do that happens ?

look to the code which the ide face a problem while compiling it ,, simplest code ever

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main()
{
cout << "Hello world!" << endl;
return 0;
}

and this is the compiling results...

enter image description here

thats all..

will codeblocks stop annoying me ?

Did you really write it as `unsingnamespace` or did you post fake code? Also, what is the full caption of that black console window? — AnT stands with Russia, Oct 17 '14 at 18:50
@Cyber im not new wich c++ dude ,, im just new with code::blocks ,, and i know that it shouled be typed like that `using namespace std;` and thanks for trying to help ,, the problem has been solved — Mohamed El Sayed, Oct 22 '14 at 17:32
It is very nice that "the problem has been solved", but this is not a chat room. And "the problem has been solved" is not something of any value here. If you have a solution - you post it. If there was no problem in the first place - you delete it. — AnT stands with Russia, Oct 22 '14 at 18:38

This line is not valid syntax

usingnamespace std;

Those are two separate keywords

using namespace std;

And since you are just starting C++, Lesson 1: Don't do that.

How does that explain the behaviour the OP's seen? SO lesson 1: this should be a comment, not an answer. – Lightness Races in Orbit Oct 17 '14 at 18:11
I'm assuming their lack of the `` include threw a compiler error about missing the `<<` operator definition. – Cory Kramer Oct 17 '14 at 18:17
Do you know what assuming does? – Lightness Races in Orbit Oct 17 '14 at 18:24
And what's this about `"Hello World!"` being a `std::string`?? What is "a `std::string` literal"??? – Lightness Races in Orbit Oct 17 '14 at 18:24
That's called it being late on a Friday and me mixing up my `C++` terminology with my `Python` [terminology](https://docs.python.org/2.0/ref/strings.html) – Cory Kramer Oct 17 '14 at 18:26
You forgot to `code format` the word "terminology". And all the other words. :) – Lightness Races in Orbit Oct 17 '14 at 18:27
Wait a minute... why would `"hello"` not be a [string literal](http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/69ze775t.aspx) in C++? Is it more correct to refer to it as a `const char` array? – Cory Kramer Oct 17 '14 at 18:29
`"hello"` is a string literal and a `const char[6]`. Nothing to do with `std::string`. – Lightness Races in Orbit Oct 17 '14 at 18:31
