what's the #include to get a string?

like say I wanted a user to input their name. That would be the string. What is the #include to get that?

Thanks,
Denis
 
Assuming a console app:

#include <string>
using std::string;

If it's MFC, you shouldn't have to #include anything to get CString.
 
You must thinking of C++ not VC++ if you are looking for a string. CString is just like a string, it has lots of functions associated with it incase you want a number to be changed into a string. CString.Format .....

:-D
 
um...you don't have to type &quot;using std::string;&quot;

it works with it and without it :).


Thanks,
Denis
