I am trying to compile a simple test program using stlport 4.6.2 and dm 8.44c
and I get an error.

Windows XP gives the "test_simple_stl_program.exe has encountered a problem and
needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience." error reporting message
box. Error Code is 0xc0000005 Searching the web it seems this is an access
violation code.

Here is the program:

#include<iostream>

int main(void) {
int number;
std::cout  << "\n\nHello World\n";
std::cin   >> number;                   //error 
std::cout  << "\n\nGoodbye\n";
return 0;
}

As soon as you press return after entering an integer ie 12 the program dies.

Is anyone else experiencing this problem?
Does anyone have a solution?

I suggest using stlport 4.5.3 which comes with DMC++ and works with it. You
can download it from
www.digitalmars.com/download/freecompiler.html

I dunno -- 4.6.2 "works for me". After all, I do maintain that DMC port 
at http://mordred.cs.ucla.edu/STLport_DMC/. I haven't sunk much time 
into STLport 5 yet, haven't really needed to do so.

What compiler flags are you using? Are you using the CD or the free 
compiler? Typically, this bug occurs when you mix the DLL STLport 
library with the static library. Also, you can only use the static 
STLport 4.6.2 library with DMC. Linking with the DLL version will cause 
you problems.

STLport is __very__ sensitive to compiler flags -- it has lots of 
options. But with freedom comes responsibility...

If you look at mordred's web page, you'll see exact compiler flags you 
need to use with the CD and the free versions of DMC.
