Currently I'm reading the fantastic C++ book by
Bjarne Stroustrup and I'm wondering why gcc does not
recognize several STL calls.

I'm using gcc, gpp with lgp (all versions == 2.8.0).

When I try to write a simple program like:

//---------------------------------------------------

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

int main()
{
   std::string Test; // an empty string

   std::cout << Test; // display an empty string ;)

   return 0;
}

//---------------------------------------------------

Compile options: -Wall -s -O3

I get some nerving warnings like:
...redefining NULL Macro in include files...


If I add some functions like:

   Test.compare() or Test.find()

(of course with right parameters)

I get errors because gcc doesn't know functions like compare or find.

So what ? Isn't string::find() an ISO/ANSI Standard Template Function ?
In Bjarne's book find() and compare() are (!) STL functions.


So please help me !
