(If you are really using TC++, posting to a gcc newsgroup is pretty 
silly, and the IDE has nothing to do with errors in your program or with 
the compiler.)

     You are missing both a needed header and a namespace specifier (or 
using statement).  As it is, 'cout' is an undeclared variable in both 
C++ (and in C, where it must be an integral variable for the left shifts 
to be legal).

The legal C++ program below yields no output other than the terminating 
newline from the 'cout << endl;'.


#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
     for (; 0; cout << 1)
         cout << 2;
         cout << endl;
}
