Dev C++ Creating A C++ File

Dec 18, 2010 Wow dude, sorry I didn't see this post earilier, linker errors can be tough. In wxDev-C (which I remeber is simular enough to Dev-C) you have to include the.h in your project by clicking Project - Add to Project then navigate to the.h you made, this tells the makefile to include the header file in your project.
The.cpp file appears in the Source Files folder in Solution Explorer, and the file is opened in the Visual Studio editor. In the file in the editor, type a valid C program that uses the C Standard Library, or copy one of the sample programs and paste it in the file.
The fstream class is not creating a file when file.open(file name) is used. Can you post whatever you have done so far? It is not the case normally.

You can use Visual Studio to create Standard C++ programs. By following the steps in this walkthrough, you can create a project, add a new file to the project, modify the file to add C++ code, and then compile and run the program by using Visual Studio.

You can type your own C++ program or use one of the sample programs. The sample program in this walkthrough is a console application. This application uses the set container in the C++ Standard Library.

Note

If compliance with a specific version of the C++ language standard (i.e. C++14 or C++17) is required, use the /std:c++14 or /std:c++17 compiler option. (Visual Studio 2017 and later.)

Prerequisites

To complete this walkthrough, you must understand the fundamentals of the C++ language.
