Hi Everyone ,

I am having issue with istream declaration. I am new to C programming.
can any one please help me ?

I am getting error in getNameValuePair.h and getNameValuePair.C code.

Here below the compilation result .

xlCcore -q64 -g -v -D_RWCONFIG=8s -D_RWSTD_NO_DEPRECATED_C_HEADERS=0 -D_RWSTD_NO_FORCE_RELATIVE_PATHS=0 -D_RWSTD_USE_USR_INCLUDE_HEADERS=0 -qnotempinc -qeh=v6 -qarch=auto -I/appl/dev/include -I/appl/dev/include/ansi -I/appl/dev -I/home/prod/itamac/iprs/iprs3.5/include -I/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/precomp/public -I/usr/include -v -O -qsuppress=1500-029 -qidirfirst -qnotempinc -qcpp_stdinc=/appl/dev/include:/appl/dev/include/ansi:/appl/dev/include/leo:/usr/include -c getNameValuePair.C

Stop.


Here below getNameValuePair.C header files declaration part

//#pragma VERSIONID "@(#)getNameValuePair.C 1.2"

// System Header Files
#include <strstream.h>
#include <iostream>
// #include <xstring>
// Unit Header Files
#include "getNameValuePair.h"

//istream &
istream &getNameValuePair(string &name, // first token found on input line
string &value, // second token found on input line
istream (&input)) // stream from which to extract line

Here below content of getNameValuePair.h

// Interface to utility function to help parse a file of name-value pairs.
// Lines are broken into tokens separated by white space.
// Lines without tokens are ignored.
// Lines whose initial token begins with "#" are ignored.
// The first token on a line is assigned to name.
// If there is a second token, it is assigned to value.
// Any remaining tokens on the line are discarded.
#include <string>
//#include <iostream.h>
istream &getNameValuePair(string &name, string &value, istream &input = cin);

Can you please anyone help me out for this issue ?

we create service request to RW vendor about this compiler problem. they told us to change header file declaration part like <iostream.h> to <iostream>. ( the above code is not updated - original source code)
after we have done the changes also, it gives same error .

can any one tell me what should need to change in above code ?
Thanks is advance
