I've been using DJGPP with RHIDE for some time now, and I've had a decent degree of luck as far as getting my programs to run, but I've always had one major problem: I can't include iostream.h!  I'm tired of skirting around cout and cin to avoid these errors; it's time to strike at the heart of the beast and figure out what's wrong!  I've checked the FAQ several (hundred) times, however, and can't find anything to remedy this problem.

Here's an example program, and the output from the message window:

#include <iostream.h>

int main()
{
   return 0;
}

(yes, that's it...i can't even try to use cout for a "hello" program!  simply including the file generates linker errors)

Compiling: main.cpp
no errors
Creating: main.exe
Error: main.o: In function `main':
main.cpp(6) Error: undefined reference to `std::ios_base::Init::Init()'
Error: main.cpp(.text+0x5d): undefined reference to `std::ios_base::Init::~Init()'
Error: main.o(.eh_frame+0x11):main.cpp: undefined reference to `__gxx_personality_v0'
Error: collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
There were some errors

I hope I can get some answers. Thanks in advance!
