str lib facilities h file from Stroustrup s Programming Principles and Practice Using C generating errors

0 votes

When I try to compile the first programme supplied in the text, the str lib facilities.h file generates problems.

The str lib facilities.h file contains the following code: 

/*
std_lib_facilities.h
*/

/*
simple "Programming: Principles and Practice using C++ (second edition)" course header to
be used for the first few weeks.
It provides the most common standard headers (in the global namespace)
and minimal exception/error support.

Students: please don't try to understand the details of headers just yet.
All will be explained. This header is primarily used so that you don't have
to understand every concept all at once.

By Chapter 10, you don't need this file and after Chapter 21, you'll understand it

Revised April 25, 2010: simple_error() added

Revised November 25 2013: remove support for pre-C++11 compilers, use C++11: <chrono>
Revised November 28 2013: add a few container algorithms
Revised June 8 2014: added #ifndef to workaround Microsoft C++11 weakness
Revised Febrary 2 2015: randint() can now be seeded (see exercise 5.13).

Switching the compiler to compile in c++11 or newer, which can be done with these commands in VSCode, is the solution.

 

The number in "-std=c++17" specifies the version in the tasks.json replacement's "args" section.

Any version newer than 11 will run the code.

What does Tokens do and why they need to be created in C++ programming?

Tokenization is essential in determining what a programme does.  What Bjarne is referring to in respect to C++ code is how tokenization rules alter the meaning of a programme.  We need to know what the tokens are and how they are determined.  Specifically, how can we recognise a single token when it comes among other characters, and how should tokens be delimited if  there is ambiguity? Consider the prefix operators ++ and +, for example. Assume we have just one token + to deal with.  What does the following excerpt mean? int i = 1; ++i; Is the above going to apply unary + on i twice with + only? Or will it only increase it once? Naturally, it's vague.  We require an additional token, thus ++ is introduced as its own "word" in the language. But there is now another (though minor) issue.  What if the programmer just wants to use unary + twice without incrementing?  Rules for token processing are required.  So, if we discover that a white space is always used as a token separator, our programmer may write: int i ...READ MORE
