Question about VS 6.0 vs. VS .NET

I'm working on a simple program for a C++ programming class. He's teaching C++ in Visual Studio 6.0 but I'm using Visual Studio .NET to write my program. Here is what I have so far:

Code:

/*	
	Program Name:	Pgm 12 - Pg 74.cpp
	Date:		12-19-2003
*/

#include <iostream.h>

int main(void)

{
	double firstNum = 105.62;
	double secNum   =  89.352;
	double thirdNum =  98.67;

	//Display screen setup
	cout << "First Number:  " << firstNum << endl
	     << "Second Number: " << secNum   << endl
	     << "Third Number:  " << thirdNum << endl;

	return 0;

} // end main

I get an error that says:

------ Build started: Project: Pgm 12 - Page 74, Configuration: Debug Win32 ------

Compiling...
Pgm 12 - Pg 74.cpp
Pgm 12 - Pg 74.cpp(29) : fatal error C1010: unexpected end of file while looking for precompiled header directive

Build log was saved at "file://c:\Documents and Settings\vatterott\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\Pgm 12 - Page 74\Debug\BuildLog.htm"

---------------------- Done ----------------------

What exactly is the difference in the header section for VS 6 vs. .NET?

Your problem is that you have precompiled headers turned on. right click the project in solution explorer and select properties. Find precompiled headers and turn them off them do a rebuild. all should be fine although i would consider ditching iostream.h in favour of iostream and using std::cout.

Thanks for the help. I think I have everyting working correctly now.

As far as the other goes though, I was just used to including all of iostream.h and I keep forgetting about being able to add just what I need. I should really find a way of getting in the habit of that.

this is how i think it should look.....

Code:

#include <iostream>

using std::cout;
using std::endl;

int main(void)

{
	double firstNum = 105.62;
	double secNum   =  89.352;
	double thirdNum =  98.67;

	//Display screen setup
	cout << "First Number:  " << firstNum << endl
	     << "Second Number: " << secNum   << endl
	     << "Third Number:  " << thirdNum << endl;

	return 0;

} // end main
