Libstc++-v2, the C++ run time library shipped with 2.95.x, was not very standard
compliant in some areas...
Why don't you upgrade to the new 3.0.x series of GNU compilers? Currently there
is no problem at all with a testcase like yours.

Ios_base missing

[Anders Backman]

Hi.
Im working under IRIX 6.5.

Im trying to compile the following code using g++ version:

Reading specs from
/lap/gcc/2.95.2/lib/gcc-lib/mips-sgi-irix6.5/2.95.2/specs
gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release)


#include <iostream>
void main()
{
  try {
      int i=0;
  }
  catch(std::ios_base::failure) {
    int u=0;
  }
}

I get the following error:

asd.cpp: In function `int main(...)':
asd.cpp:8: parse error before `::'
asd.cpp:10: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

It seems to be the namespace ios_base that is missing.

The same code compiles both under MSVC++ 6.0 and Irix MIPSPRO.
Is there a compiler flag Im missing or?

I get the same error under Cygwin using g++ 
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-cygwin/2.95.3-5/specs
gcc version 2.95.3-5 (cygwin special)
