I am getting this error in the TestExecute.cpp -

"Symbol 'std' could not be resolved"

CODE

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

I just created a executable project in Eclipse (in Windows 7) as shown below. It seems like I am selecting a toolchain that is not supported. Is it so? I have installed Cygwin and it is available in preferences.

EDIT: Based on @RobertoWilko comment, removing the line "using namespace std; " removed the error. But the binary is not created. "Launch Failed. Binary not found". How to correct this?

Try out this step: https://www.eclipse.org/forums/index.php/t/636348/

Go to

Project -> Properties -> C/C++ General -> Preprocessor Include Paths, Macros, etc. -> Providers

  • Activate CDT GCC Built-in Compiler Settings
  • Deactivate Use global provider shared between projects
  • Add the command line argument -std=c++11.
