string lives in namespace std.
Try a replace all of "string" with "std::string"

I have a header file defined as follows:
//commodity.h
#include <string>
#ifndef COMMODITY_H
#define COMMODITY_H
class Commodity
{
long commId;
string description;
string manufacturerId;
public:
Commodity(void);
Commodity(long cId, string descrip, string mfgId);
void setCommodityId(long cId);
void setDescription(string descrip);
void setManufacturerId(string mfgId);
long getCommodityId(void);
string getDescription(void);
string getManufacturerId(void);
};
#endif
And I have another file that makes use of this header file:
//driver.cpp
#include "commodity.h"
int main()
{
return 0;
}
But when I try to compile, I receive the error:
syntax error : missing ';' before identifier 'description
Along with many other errors. I have tried everything I can think of, and I
still cannot find the error...any suggestions?
Thanks for your help,
Joe
