the current test is:
#line 1680 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
using namespace std;
int main() {
; return 0; }
it fails with the message:
"configure", line 1683: error(3173): name must be a namespace name
using namespace std;
you just need to add a header file that contains elements of the C++
standard library defined in std. not all C++ standard library that comes
with the SGI C++ compiler are in defined in std. for example iostream
stuff are not in std. however string is. so just include the string
header file in the program. This compiles fine with CC:
#line 1680 "configure"
#include "confdefs.h"
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string>
using namespace std;
int main() {
; return 0; }
the SGI compiler puts the std library in header files that don't end in
".h". same header file ending in ".h" will have declarations in the
global name space.
