    Depends on your compiler/IDE. Any specific one you're using?

    That does not actually answer the question, but based on the context that you provided: use g++ instead of gcc. Also, change to a more C++ kind of file extension, e.g., .cpp.

    That is not a compiler/IDE.

    Not working is not a very good error description. Too vague. Can't help you if you don't provide details.
    What COMPILER or IDE are you using? If you get an error, what is the error?
