When i'm trying to declare a function with a string parameter in .h file an error occurs. I haven't forgot to include string.h =) Everything builds fine when i'm using char[], but the i want the argument to be a string.

A:
string.h doesn't exist in C++. Did you mean string (without the .h)? Additionally, the string class resides in the std namespace you need to qualify the type usage:
std::string timeToStr(std::string);
It would be helpful if you had posted the exact error message and a code to reproduce the error.

thanks a lot, i mentioned <code>using namespace std;</code> in my cpp file, but forgot about <code>std::</code> the header.

`<string.h> does exist in c++, since it is inherited from c ;). However, it has nothing to do with `<string>`

@Evan: yes but `<string.h>` exists only for reasons of backwards compatibility, it should not be used. Use the header `<cstring>` instead, it replaces `<string.h>`.

A:
try
#include <string>
instead of
#include <string.h>
they are different things - string.h is the CRT, string is the STL.
