Are there known problems with C++ and Project Builder?
I'm trying to teach myself some programming by reading the tutorials on www.cplusplus.com and have hit a snag with the cin.getline() function,e.g
the following program:

// cin with strings
#include <iostream.h>

int main ()
{
char mybuffer [100];
cout << "What's your name? ";
cin.getline (mybuffer,100);
cout << "Hello " << mybuffer << ".\n";
cout << "Which is your favourite team? ";
cin.getline (mybuffer,100);
cout << "I like " << mybuffer << " too.\n";
return 0;
}

When pasted into a C++ file, saved with a .cpp extension and compiled using c++ .... in the terminal window produces an application which does not work as it is supposed to.

For some reason it wants the cin completed before it does the cout prompt for it... , which makes it a little confusing.
Any ideas as to what might be wrong?
Cheers
Jeff

Try to compile this with the terminal using cc command

cc mySource -o myProgramme

and after, you just have to type ./myProgramme

This was discussed in detail some time ago, it appears to be a bug in apple's std c++ libs, but then nobody ever uses cin/cout so I don't think it's got a very high priority. Search the archives if you like.

Someone over at the Apple discussion page has suggested I replace the libraries with ones from STLport,
I've downloaded the folder but don't know what to do with them next?
Anybody got any suggestions?
