RE: FW: Wide char support on cygwin

["Arthi N (RBIN/ECM2)" <Arthi dot N at in dot bosch dot com>]

Thank you for the reply, from this reply, I shall concentrate more on
cygwin.  

But I have included the needed header inspite of that I get the error 
	!) " error: ISO C++ forbids declaration of `wostream' with no
type" 
	2) " error: `std::wostream' should have been declared inside
`std' "
	3)"  error: `wostream' is neither function nor member function;
cannot be decl
ared friend"

1)	what could be the problem.

2) I had downloaded the latest cygwin from the net and installed. Is
there any other library to be included while installation

3) How do I know which version of STL is getting used in cygwin.

Thanks and Regards
        Arthi

Yes. If you use mingw you are not using the cygwin dlls at all.
Maybe you should read the descriptions of both projects to decide which
 you want to use. If you want to port software from unix i think using
cygwin is easier (that means don't use -mnocygwin)

Include the needed header files. There should be no problem as both are
standard C++ Library functions if i remember right.
