calling std::cout.rdbuf() produces syntax error
- by Mikepote
Maybe I missed something, but I cant figure out why Visual Studio 2008 isn't seeing the rdbuf() procedure. Here is my code:
16. #include "DebugBuffer/BufferedStringBuf.h"
17.
18. BufferedStringBuf debug_buffer(256);
19. std::cout.rdbuf(&debug_buffer);
The BufferedStringBuf class is from this page: http://www.devmaster.net/forums/showthread.php?t=7037
Which produces the following error:
...src\main.cpp(19) : error C2143: syntax error : missing ';' before '.'
All I want to do is redirect std::cout to the Visual Studio Output window using OutputDebugString()..
