while loop and compiler troubles

Hi,

I am using the DevCPP and Mingw bundle and i think there is something wrong with it. My question is, did i do something wrong or is it the compilers fault. I think i screwed up on the while loop. If I did, could someone please show me the correct way of doing it.

this program still incomplete but when i tried compiling i got a ton of errors. First it is supposed to display a string, "commands", then it is supposed to change the value of "command_input".

Code:

---

#include <iostream>
#include <math.h>
#include <string.h>

using namespace std;

int main ()

{                string display_commands ; // a string which contains all the commands which is displayed to the user later on
                string command_input ;
                int repeat ; //integer used for loop
               
                int = 1 ;
               
        while (repeat = 1)
       
        {
                cout << display_commands <<endl ;
               
               
                cout << " Type the command of the application you wish to use " ;
                cin <<command_input ;
               
                cout << "Exit the new window and press enter in this window to repeat";
                    cin.get();
   
}     
          return 0;
               


}

You don't have a variable name here:

Code:

---

int = 1 ;

---

This is always true:

Code:

---

while (repeat = 1)

---

cin uses the >> operator.

Code:

---

cin <<command_input ;

thanks
