vector / c++ / visual c++ 5.0

Please, help me…it’s many weeks I can’t solve my problem. In the most of 3ds loaders I found, there’s the use of the class “vector” using “push back” and the other function I don’t remember now. well, this class doesn’t work with all compilers I got.I know I could write my own code, but I can’t. please, is there anyone who could help me? thanks very much!

Vector is in the STL, so it should be available on every C++ compiler.
Try including it’s header in angle brackets like this:

#include <vector>

And check that everywhere you use vector, make sure that you are in the correct namespace. i.e.
where ever you see:

vector<int> my_vec;

change it to:

std::vector<int> my_vec;

Hope this helps.

If your “problem code” uses just vector <float> or something, there will be problems with ISO compliant C++ compilers. Yes, you can change it to std::vector <float> everywhere, but an easier way is to just add

using namespace std;

immediately after the #include <vector> directive.

well, I use “using namespace std;” cause it’s already present in the code, but the problem remains. this is what happens when I compile it, so you can have a more specific help.
