Forum :: Programming :: c++ compiling errors

std::cout << sLoaded;
Console::Out("%i", sLoaded);

map.cpp:2967:1: error: 'cout' in namespace 'std' does not name a type
map.cpp:2968:13: error: expected constructor, destructor, or type conversion before '(' token

Shouldn't I be able to use cout and Out anywhere as long as I provide the namespace?

#include <iostream>

You need to include the input output stream library. This is because the namespace declaration is located in the library iostream.

I however, would recommend using <stdio.h> library and using printf. 

usage declaring namespace:

#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

cout << "blah";

other way

#include <iostream>

std::cout << "blah";

thanks but that's not it. it's because I put it outside of an initializer.
