Replacement for Console.WriteLine?

[Ramon F Herrera]

I am an experienced C developer, but also a newbie in C++.

I am trying to compile and run the following code snippet on Linux:

FieldIterator itr = doc.GetFieldIte rator();

while (itr.HasNext()) {
Field field = itr.Current();
Console.WriteLi ne("Field name: {0}", field.GetName() );
itr.Next();
}

Since my g++ compiler doesn't like the "Console.WriteL ine()"
statement, I googled for it, and it seems to be some Windows-specific
construct. What can I use as a replacement? Obviously, I tried
"printf()" but the argument is not a string.

TIA,

I don't knwo what your "Field" or "doc" is, but it looks to me like
you have .NET code there, not C++.
To display something to the console, or more specifically to the
standard out stream, use std::cout.
You will have quite the time converting .NET to C++ on a Linux
platform.

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
std::cout << "Hello World!";
return 0;
}
