Question

Error while compiling C++ file using clang

Answer 1

A:

You could begin by adding the appropriate return of the function.

Even though that may not be the actual problem your having now, its not a good practice and depending on the compiler and options being used the lack of return could cause a compiling error.

#include <iostream>

int main()
{
   std::cout << "Hello World!\n" ;
   return 0;
}

In C++, explicit `return 0` at the end of `main()` is optional.Section 3.6.1/5 says: `A return statement in main has the effect of leaving the main function (destroying any objects with automatic storage duration) and calling exit with the return value as the argument. If control reaches the end of main without encountering a return statement, the effect is that of executing return 0;`

try to include "stdafx.h" or edit project settings to remove "precompiled header files".

@chubsdad, shouldn't this be an answer, rather than a comment?

Answer 2

A:

It seems clang is not happy including VC10 header files. I'd try it with VC9.

Answer 3

A:

#include "stdafx.h"
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
   cout << "Hello World!\n" ;
   return 0;
}

try with this one,otherwise it may be the compiler problem...
