Simple Vector Problem

[Nepomuk]

Hi everyone!
Until now, I've almost only programmed in Java and am now learning C++ (using Bjarne Stroustrup's book). Now, I wanted to test one of the examples from the book, but somehow it doesn't work as it should.
Here's my code, reduced to the most simple elements:
[code=c++]
#include <iostream>
#include <stdexcept>

using namespace std;

vector<int> myVec(100);

int main()
{
for(int i=0; i<26; i++)
{
myVec[i]=i;
}
}
[/code]When trying to compile it with g++, I get: (translated from german)

vectorTest.cpp:12: Error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before »<« token
vectorTest.cpp: In function »int main()«:
vectorTest.cpp:23: Error: »myVec« was not defined in this scope

Here, line 12 is the line "vector<int > myVec(100);" and line 23 is "myVec[i]=i;".
In Java, I would guess, that a line like
[code=java]
myVec = new Vec<int>();
[/code]was missing, but as it's not in the book, there must be some other error.

I'm sure, the error is really simple, but I just can't find it. Who will solve the mystery for me?

You need to #include <vector>.

You need to #include <vector>.

I KNEW it would be simple! ^^
Thanks a lot, it works fine now. Thing is, in this book, he just left out all "#include"s and I just assumed, vector was in one of those, he had mentioned.
Do you have to include a lot of classes like "vector" separately or are most in libraries like "iostream"?

You have to #include any STL classes you use, such as set, map, vector, list, etc. Otherwise, most of what you need can be found in iostream or string.

Thanks a lot, I'll keep that in mind.

Keep your Bjarne Stroustrup open at page 431 etc. (at least in my old copy); it
lists the most important header files from the standard library.

Thanks, it's the same page in my quite new "Special Edition". Those lists will come in handy next time! ^^
