Okay, so I have
tmp.cpp:
#include <string>
int main()
{
std::to_string(0);
return 0;
}
But when I try to compile I get:
$ g++ tmp.cpp -o tmp
tmp.cpp: In function ‘int main()’:
tmp.cpp:5:5: error: ‘to_string’ is not a member of ‘std’
std::to_string(0);
^
I'm running g++ version 4.8.1. Unlike all the other references to this error that I found out there, I am not using MinGW, I'm on Linux (3.11.2).
Any ideas why this is happening? Is this standard behaviour and I did something wrong or is there a bug somewhere?
you may want to specify the C++ version with
g++ -std=c++11 tmp.cpp -o tmp
I don't have gcc 4.8.1 at hand , but in older versions of GCC, you can use
g++ -std=c++0x tmp.cpp -o tmp
At least gcc 4.9.2 I believe also support part of C++14 by specifying
g++ -std=c++1y tmp.cpp -o tmp
Update:
gcc 5.3.0 (I am using the cygwin version) supports both -std=c++14
and -std=c++17
now.
to_string works with the latest C++ versions like version 11. For older versions you can try using this function
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
template <typename T>
std::string ToString(T val)
{
std::stringstream stream;
stream << val;
return stream.str();
}
By adding a template you can use any data type too.
You have to include #include<sstream>
here.
