[comp.lang.c++] Turbo C++ and cout << form

thom@dewey.soe.berkeley.edu (Thom Gillespie) (09/22/90)

I'm trying to use 

cout << form("something or other\n");

i've included
#include <iostream.h>
#include <stream.h>

iostream.h has the definition for cout, stream.h has the definition for form()
and the compiler gives me multiple declare messages. Other than me going in and
trying to cut and paste from the 2 header files, is there anything I can do?

I'm using Turbo C++ disktutor with students and I hate the thought of using
printf("anything\n"); with C++.

Any help much appreciated. What kind of technical support is Borland providing?
We have the C++ Professional package but I'm trying to keep the students away
from it for the first month or so. The disktutor is a nice managable package,
now if I can only get form() working. Thanks. Email or posting fine.
