Hi,
i want test Watcom c++, but i have the problem to compile easy code.
In visual c++ is that code no problem:

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
using namespace std;

int main ()
{
string mystring = "Hello";
cout << mystring << endl;
cin >> mystring;
cout << mystring;

return 0;
}


And the compiler error:

cd C:\WATCOM\programmieren
wmake -f C:\WATCOM\programmieren\noname.mk -h -e -a C:\WATCOM\programmieren\u.obj
wpp386 u.cpp -i=C:\WATCOM\h;C:\WATCOM\h\nt -w4 -e25 -zq -od -d2 -6r -bt=nt -mf -xs -xr

Error(E42): Last command making (C:\WATCOM\programmieren\u.obj) returned a bad status

PLEASE can anybody help me?

I was wondering the same thing - it's in the official FAQ.

From that page...

Most annoying.
