Using c++ string and iostream library when developing WinDbg extension.

[Ferad Zyulkyarov]

Hi, I am developing one simple extension for WinDbg. In one of my
classes I wanted to use the string c++ class but the build failed
because the the <string> header was not found and the std namespace
was not found.

The error messages

error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'string' No such file or
directory
error C2871: 'std' : a namespace with this name does not exist

I use the WDK tool set to build the extension as suggested at Building
DbgEng Extensions at msdn page.

I wonder is there a way to use c++ string class, and also the iostream
library when developing WinDbg extension (DbgEng or EngExtCpp).

Thanks,
Ferad

I'm able to use the string successfully in my windbg extension.
plz chk if you have done following:
#include <string>
using namespace std;

Hi,

I do have

#include <string>
using namespace std;

But this results to the following error
- error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'string' No such file or
directory

When I delete #include <string> and leave just "using namespace std;"
I get the following error:
- error C2871: 'std' : a namespace with this name does not exist

I guess there is something wrong with the include paths. Could it be?

Thanks

Did you try adding to Sources file the following line(s):

USE_STL=1

USE_NATIVE_EH=1
USE_MSVCRT=1
