Have you looked at the build log/build messages in the log & others? Are there any errors? You can click on lines in the build message to focus the editor on the line which causes the compiler to emit the error.

thats the thing, i don't get any specific comments in my personal code. my code is 25 lines or so and when i try and build it it opens a new tab called ostream and theres about 300 lines with errors that i have no clue what they mean. one error i recall was that cout was not declared in this scope.

is there a way to attach pictures? this is the first forum ive ever used in truth and feel that might help.

Use a project! From the screenshot it looks like you compile a single file without a project, this can lead to various issues.

The error message indicates wrong search paths, its kind of weird that it could find even that header, but again, without a project and properly setup compiler, things like that can happen.
