header file

khomeyni

hello everybody when i include a header file with space between words of its name then my compiler cannot link them and take error: [sajad@sajad binary search trees]$ g++ binary\ trees.cpp binary trees.cpp:3:73: error: /home/sajad/src/ds/test/binary\ search\ trees/BST_node_base.h: No such file or directory binary trees.cpp:4:63: error: /home/sajad/src/ds/test/binary\ search\ trees/BST.h: No such file or direct while the directory and address is completely true. #include<iostream> #include "/home/sajad/src/ds/test/binary\ search\ trees/BST_node_base.h" #include "/home/sajad/src/ds/test/binary\ search\ trees/BST.h" but when i change the name ,without space between it then it run correct,what can i do to solve this error? also when i include a fileheader and in it use for example cout<<"hello"< using namespace std it work true.does it must be as i write or there is another way to solve this? this is the part of header file: #include<iostream> using namespace std; template <class T>class BS_Tree{ public: bool direction; int n; BST_node<T>* root; BS_Tree(){ root=NULL; } ....

what error ? why would you put spaces between the parts of the path ?

You may either avoid spaces inside the paths or use relative ones. As about the namespace, You have two options:

specify, as you did, using namespace std;
Qualify each (std) object with the std namespace, e.g. std::cout instead of cout, std::endl instead of endl etc...

Take out the back-slashes that quote the spaces. That is, change this:

#include "/home/sajad/src/ds/test/binary\ search\ trees/BST_node_base.h"
#include "/home/sajad/src/ds/test/binary\ search\ trees/BST.h"

to this

#include "/home/sajad/src/ds/test/binary search trees/BST_node_base.h"
#include "/home/sajad/src/ds/test/binary search trees/BST.h"

Oh - but don't, don't, don't use absolute paths in code like that! What happens when the code-base moves? You're screwed, aren't you.
