Hi All, I was trying to compile my code on Cygwin[1.5.25-11] with GCC[4.1.2], but I am not able to build with errors on wstring. I tried to test a simple application which uses wstring, like #include <string> #include <iostream> int main( ) { using namespace std; const basic_string <wchar_t> s1 ( L"abc" ); wstring s2 ( L"abc" ); // Uses the typedef for wstring if ( s1 == s2 ) cout << "The strings s1 & s2 are equal." << endl; else cout << "The strings s1 & s2 are not equal." << endl; } and on compiling I am getting the following error.. -->g++ main.cpp -o main main.cpp: In function `int main()': main.cpp:8: error: `wstring' undeclared (first use this function) main.cpp:8: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once for each fu nction it appears in.) main.cpp:8: error: expected `;' before "s2" main.cpp:9: error: `s2' undeclared (first use this function) I searched on the net but could not get any thing recent or useful. Some old forum threads[2005] say that it was not supported. Any advice or pointer will be of great help. Thanks & Regards Vipin
