namespace std

**strobe9** · 10-21-2003

okay i've posted about this topic before here he goes again...

so here i am compiling a multi source program and i'm getting all these duplicate symbol from std, etc...

it has something to do with using namespace std;
in multiple files

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

so has anyone else had a problem with this before ?

can you post the errors? maybe youare #including something more than once in your files? use ifdef for caution.

i have no clue what your talking about, but try this (even though it's kinda redundant... )

Code:

#ifndef _iostream_h_std
#define _iostream_h_std
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
#endif

btw, it's just expanding on what axon said...

the ifdefsare already int he include files

are you compiling from a makefile? perhaps its recreating the object files more than one and overlaps? thats what the problem was for me
