C++ :: Why Is It Valid To Include Header Files Twice In A Project

May 12, 2013

if I include iostream twice in my project why is that valid? Wouldn't the linker see that there are two definitions of it and report a error, but it works?

By project I mean in multiple translation units.

C :: How To Include Single Header Files Into Project

Oct 2, 2014

I'm a beginner with C and wonder how to include single header files (*.h) in to my project. I mean header files which are not included to the standard installation package.

I thought it would work if I just copy the newheader.h file in to library folder c:MinGWinclude, but it didn't work. Is there some kinf of GCC -command or procedure to add these single header files or how it should work?

All of those standard header files are working well and I don't have any problems with them.

Environment I'm using is MinGW+GCC+Win7.

Visual C++ :: Should Precompiled Header Files Also Be Included In Source Header Files?

Sep 16, 2013

When including a header file in stdafx.h, should that file still be included in the source file where it is actually used?

If it is included in both places, is the one in the source file ignored?

C/C++ :: Unable To Include A Header Into Application?

Aug 16, 2012

I've downloaded a file that I need to include in a new project. It's called phidget21.h and it's sat on my desktop. I've tried copying it to lots of various places. But I still can't get a new source file to compile. I think I haven't copied it to the right place yet. Where should I have copied it to?

#include <cstdlib>
#include <iostream>
#include <phidgets21.h>

C++ :: Where To Put The Include Directive And Using Namespace Std With Multiple Files

Aug 23, 2014

I have two files that I want to compile:

main.cpp
Code:
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int ReadNumber();
void WriteAnswer();

[Code] .....

The compiler complains:
io.cpp||In function 'int ReadNumber()':|
io.cpp|3|error: 'cin' was not declared in this scope|
io.cpp||In function 'void WriteAnswer()':|
io.cpp|7|error: 'cout' was not declared in this scope|
io.cpp|7|error: 'endl' was not declared in this scope|

In io.cpp file, should I put the two statements ("include <iostream>" and "using namespace std") at the top, outside of the functions?

Or should I put the two statements inside each of the functions?

I have one requirement. I have a project lets Say baseProject.vcxproj. It has some header files. Another project lets say dependentProject.vcxproj loads baseProjects's dll and uses some of its header files.

When some other project lets say unrelatedProejct includes the header file from e dependentproject which includes baseproject's header file. It makes to change the include driectory setting of unrelatedproject. How to avoid this.?

C :: Header Files Not Found On Mac

Nov 2, 2013

I have a piece of code in C with header files included. I run it on Mac OS X Maverick with XCode 4.6.2 installed. GCC is also installed. Note that Command Line Tools in XCode are already installed.

When I compile it, the error I receive says something like this:

add.c:1:19: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory add.c:2:20: error: stdlib.h: No such file or directory add.c:3:20: error: unistd.h: No such file or directory

However when I run it on Ubuntu, it compiles without a problem.What to do?

C++ :: Using Namespaces In Header Files

Dec 9, 2013

So I've been making a header file and put variables in their own namespace to avoid conflicts. My question is, do functions in the header file normally go in a namespace too, or should they just be named in a way which makes them unlikely to be accidentally copied?

C++ :: Precompiled Header Files

Apr 2, 2013

My teacher talks about header files just having definitions and not declerations. I am writing a program that has a .h file and a related .cpp file along with a main.cpp it would be nice to have the .cpp file associated with the .h file compiled into an object file that would than just be referenced when the .h file is included. Am I making any sense?

C++ :: How To Use Two Header Files In Program

Sep 17, 2013

I want to use two header files in my program. Here is exactly what I want to do.

-In the first header I have a binary tree and a structure.
-In the second file I have another functions that need to use the structure in the first header.
-I also want to use a function from the second header in the first.
-And finally I want to do actions with both headers in a "main.cpp" file that contains only int main() function.

How to include the headers in each other and in the main.cpp to be able to do the actions above?

I try to include the first header in the second one and the second one in the first header. Then I include both headers in the main.cpp file. But the compiler shows me many errors.

C++ :: Finding Nested Header Files?

Aug 27, 2013

I'm working with CGAL - Computational Geometry Algorithms Library, which is a library of geometry functions declared as several thousand header-only files. When I run a basic program (source code [URL] ) I get this output: [URL]

I have tried switching angle brackets to quotes. I have also started reading up on CMake.

Do I need to walk the dependency tree and add all of those files to my CMakeLists.txt? Or is there a way to tell the compiler to look in subdirectories?

C :: How To Deal With Conflicts In Header Files

Nov 6, 2013

I have some header files with generic functions. And in one of them, I define TRUE and FALSE. Recently I started using another header file and it defined TRUE and FALSE as well. That caused GCC to throw an error, and not compile. In my case I can put #IFNDEF around the values so that if it is already defined they don't get defined again, but is there a better way to handle duplicate names? I assume the case would be the same for duplicated functions, how does that get handled?

C++ :: Using A Header File Across Multiple Files?

Aug 2, 2014

So say I create a header file which contains a list of structs, and I want to use these structs through out my source and some of my classes... how would I accomplish this?

When I try to do it via #include, I get re-definition errors, due to the nature of #pragma once. If I switch to #ifndef then I lack defenitions in files other than the source.

Is there a way to define things such as structs across multiple files, which doesn't lead to re-definition errors, and doesn't involve manually re-created all the structs for each file?

C++ :: Default Constructors And Header Files?

I'm working on trying to figure out constructors and header files. Can ya'll help me out with this? I'm sure my code looks like a mess as I tried to piece together different solutions I've found. There's also an attempted copy constructor and operator function. Basically my problem is my source file says there is no default constructor for my class type. Here's my header code:

C++ :: Creating Header Files With Functions

Oct 30, 2014

I currently have a running program "game.cpp" that runs a game of tic tack toe. I want to split the working functions into header files so that game.cpp isn't so cluttered. I have created two header files "displayBoard.h" and "gamePlay.h" but they wont compile because the functions are looking for variables that haven't been declared. First, here's the working code.

#include "displayBoard.h"
#include <iostream>
#include <limits> //This is required to catch invalid user input
class ticTacToe //A class to contain all our functions {
